Define "best".

If you use too high a resolution, your users with lower resolution will not
be able to see the entire form.

If you use the lower resolution, your users with higher resolution will have
"empty" space below and to the right.

Which group do you think will be less pleased?

800 * 600 Windows screen resolution

Or

1024*768 Windows screen resolution



Because:

Some user computer

800 * 600

If there is no standard at your company for screen resolution, you'll have
to go with 800 x 600.
The forms will fit and can be used on both screens but they won't look
pretty on the large screen like the way you desgined them.
 
There are a number of form resizing functions out there. Here's a link to one
I've used successfully, Named Form Resizer::

These functions all share one trait: They work best SIZING FORMS UP, so
develop your app in the lowest resolution you're apt to run it on.
