External apps maximizing AROUND your app
-
I have a form that runs down one side of the screen , but I want all other application to only maximize up to my form and not under it. I hope this is clear enough. Another way to put it would be like the taskbar when it runs down the side of the screen. any help would be appreciated Thanks, Terence -- modified at 12:01 Thursday 23rd March, 2006

What you want to do is "dock" your window to the side of the desktop. I don't think .NET can do this. You'll need to P/Invoke the SHAppBarMessage() win32 function. The following CodeProject article should contain all of the details you need. http://www.codeproject.com/csharp/csdoesshell3.asp[^]
