      Hi Shay The space on the PDA has haunted us all! Removing the boarder does not make to much difference as you are still stuck with the windows menu ontop of your form (unless you are not allowing access to the OS). This being said I dont think that the menu is available without the boarders. I found the easiest thing to do is: find out the pixle size of the screen, subtract the height of the menu and set the form size to that. set the position to (0,0). If you need more space on the screen try usings a tab control, decreasing the font sizes and maybe even squashing your controls some more (make your buttons smaller). If the reason for the menu is only the SIP then rather not use the menu. Call the SIP Control when focus is set to a text input control. Programming is a way of thinking ... its a way of life. Some people have it and some people don't. Well at least thats what the voices in my head tell me. :)
