I need to hide all of the controls on my form, turn it completely black, and cover the whole screen with it. (Black out the screen).
I have this:
Dim Control As Control
For Each Control In frmMain.Controls
Control.Visible = False
Next Control
Me.BackColor = vbBlack
Me.Move 0, 0, Screen.Width, Screen.Height
This does all that I want, but it does not cover the screen and the titlebar is still there. I tried:
Me.BorderStyle = 0
And:
Me.Caption = ""
Me.ControlBox = False
but VB won't let me do that.
Creating form that is completely black isn't really an option I'd like to consider - there is code in the KeyDown Event and Private Global Variables that need to stay with the form and a second form would just mess everthing up.
Any ideas?

Don't try to set all the properties at runtime. If you do it all at design time, it should work. What kind of program are you making?
-
Did you try Borderstyle=0 WindowState=2maximized to cover the whole screen and hide titlebar?
-
in the Project Properties menu at the left you can set the Border to 0 - None instead of anything else. As for maximizing im not sure.
