>Is it possible for a form to cover the entiry screen (full screen) even the taskbar

It must be possible, because a lot of setup programs do it. I'm not sure what calls you'd have to make to do this, though.

You could set the MinButton property to .f., then call the Win32 API SetWindowPos() function with HWND_TOPMOST.

However, I hesitate to recommend even attempting this. This breaks a lot of UI standards, and could lead to frustration for the end users. If you're trying to control which applications a user can run, take a look at the Zero Administration Kit. If you're but one application on a system which has applications from a mixture of vendors, including yourself, I'd would advise against this approach if you're not the one responsible for administering these systems.
