Sorry, usually people want to create Kiosk application and not just full
screen applications.

You could try p/invoking the MoveWindow, ShowWindow, SetWindowPos on
FindWindow("HHTaskBar").
Or you could try to use the SHFullScreen to basically do the same.

Basically search for HHTaskBar or Kiosk in the
microsoft.public.dotnet.framework.compactframework newsgroup.

Also http://www.pocketpcdn.com/articles/kiosk_mode.html covers this very
well.

You can buy a ready made solution here:
