It's possible. I've done this before. I had to find the window by name, and then get its coordinates using Win32 functions. Once that information was obtained, it became relatively straight-forward to modify the size of the form to fit the screen. Some issues arose with multiple monitors. The algorithm wound up being kind of hefty to accommodate all the variables.

It might be easier to maximize the window and note the left, top, width and height values, and compare them to the native desktop size to determine if the taskbar is visible or not (again, sometimes a tricky issue with multiple monitors). The rectangular portion that your window doesn't occupy will be the part that's the taskbar.

HTH! :-)

This function MonitorFromWindow() might help: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/dd145064%28v=vs.85%29.aspx
