How do you maximize a form in VB so that it sits on top of the taskbar, like every other application, rather than hide the bottom 1/4 inch behind it.

I have an application with some controls near the bottom of the form that are moved when maximized, but the sit partly obscured by the taskbar.

To illustrate what I mean, maximize any MS Office application, or Internet Explorer etc. They all but the bottom of the window, the part with the status bar above the taskbar. Now do the same with a VB form in VB6. It hides behind it.

It's possible with code, but I also need to check if the taskbar is Always On, or set to Autohide etc.

Please help.
