Use Screen Class which gives right gives you working area of screen of monitor. Then Form load Event will look like this private void dynamicSizeForm_Load(System.Object sender, System.EventArgse) { Screen scr = Screen.PrimaryScreen; this.Left = (scr.WorkingArea.Width – this.Width) / 2; this.Top = (scr.WorkingArea.Height – this.Height) / 2; } You can use above code to fix the location and size of windows form when it loads Screen.PrimaryScreen Returns a Rectangle structure that represents the bounds of the display area for the current screen, minus the space taken for the taskbar and any other docked windows.

thank you for your response but in whitch position in my code I put this line ?

I assume you are using C# 2008 VS express. Then use this call : Rectangle r = Screen.GetBounds(myform); This does not give you the bounds of your form but it gives you the bounds of the screen your form wants to live in. Now r contains all the elements to adjust the size of your form. ================================================== For vs 2005 Try This: private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { this.Width = Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Width; this.Height = Screen.PrimaryScreen.WorkingArea.Height; this.Top = 0; this.Left = 0; }
