C# Window Docking

Question

I'm just wondering how do I achieve this kind of window docking. Our Service Desk is using a legacy application "Outlook Email Tagger" where they can add additional information in the email items. The application can dock on the top of the window and all the windows behind it will automatically resize their height. I think this was created using VB 6.0 and I'm about to convert it using C#.net.

So far this.Dock = DockStyle.Top doesn't do the trick because it only dock the window on the top of the screen but windows behind it still in maximize mode.

I have attached the program for you to have a better picture on it.

Referencing an executable file to download as you have is dangerous. — Bernard, Mar 25 '14 at 02:42

This type of window is called an "Application Desktop Toolbar" and can be implemented via P/Invoking to the base APIs:
