Hi, I couldn't get u what u actually u r expecting Ok anyway. herewith i am sending some Procedures of script which is concern about the Resizing the form ,along with which will resize the controls accorindly.
Public Sub ResizeForm(pfrmIn As Form)
Dim FormControl As Control
Dim isVisible As Boolean
Dim StartX, StartY, MaxX, MaxY As Long
Dim bNew As Boolean
If Not bRunning Then
bRunning = True
If FindForm(pfrmIn) < 0 Then
bNew = True
Else
bNew = False
End If
If pfrmIn.Top < 30000 Then
isVisible = pfrmIn.Visible
On Error Resume Next
If Not pfrmIn.MDIChild Then
On Error GoTo 0
' ' pfrmIn.Visible = False
Else
If bNew Then
StartY = pfrmIn.Height
StartX = pfrmIn.Width
On Error Resume Next
For Each FormControl In pfrmIn
If FormControl.Left + FormControl.Width + 200 > MaxX Then
MaxX = FormControl.Left + FormControl.Width + 200
End If
If FormControl.Top + FormControl.Height + 500 > MaxY Then
MaxY = FormControl.Top + FormControl.Height + 500
End If
If FormControl.X1 + 200 > MaxX Then
MaxX = FormControl.X1 + 200
End If
If FormControl.Y1 + 500 > MaxY Then
MaxY = FormControl.Y1 + 500
End If
If FormControl.X2 + 200 > MaxX Then
MaxX = FormControl.X2 + 200
End If
If FormControl.Y2 + 500 > MaxY Then
MaxY = FormControl.Y2 + 500
End If
Next FormControl
On Error GoTo 0
pfrmIn.Height = MaxY
pfrmIn.Width = MaxX
End If
On Error GoTo 0
End If
For Each FormControl In pfrmIn
ResizeControl FormControl, pfrmIn
Next FormControl
On Error Resume Next
If Not pfrmIn.MDIChild Then
On Error GoTo 0
pfrmIn.Visible = isVisible
Else
If bNew Then
pfrmIn.Height = StartY
pfrmIn.Width = StartX
For Each FormControl In pfrmIn
ResizeControl formControl, pfrmIn
Next FormControl

If u have any doubt feel free to ask me..
I'm assuming you want a Form that has no Border, Caption, etc..
In a Form with BorderStyle Set to Sizeable and ShowInTaskBar set to False and WindowState set to Maximized..
------------------Code:Private Declare Function SetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "SetWindowLongA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long, ByVal dwNewLong As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function GetWindowLong Lib "user32" Alias "GetWindowLongA" (ByVal hwnd As Long, ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long
Private Const GWL_STYLE = (-16)
Private Const WS_CAPTION = &HC00000
Private Const WS_BORDER = &H800000
Private Sub Form_Load()
'A Maximized Sizable Form doesn't Cover the Taskbar
'So Just Remove the Caption and Border..
Call SetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_STYLE, GetWindowLong(hwnd, GWL_STYLE) Xor WS_CAPTION Xor WS_BORDER)
End Sub
