Ok, I have searched google/yahoo for a while and i have not been able to find a working example of how to make the application go into full screen mode. such as if a user pressed alt+enter
help please.

-Thank you

Basically, the idea is like this
calculate(detect) the maximum of pixel in terms of horizontal and vertical, follow by resize it to the maximum pixel the monitor allowed.

I think there are few library that help you do it.

That has absolutely nothing to do with the question...

Full Screen (non-windowed) mode is a fairly specialized case, but there is plenty of information on MSDN

this is the emulation of alt+enter

#include <windows.h>

void fullscreen() {
     keybd_event(VK_MENU, 0x38, 0, 0);
     keybd_event(VK_RETURN, 0x1c, 0, 0);
     keybd_event(VK_MENU, 0x38, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
     keybd_event(VK_RETURN, 0x1c, KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0);
}

Don't use hard-coded constants like that.

// Simulate ALT-ENTER keystrokes
void AltEnter()
{
    // NOTE: This method only works if the console window has the keyboard 
    //       focus and the user isn't hitting keys on the keyboard.
    SetForegroundWindow(GetConsoleWindow()); 
    keybd_event(VK_MENU, MapVirtualKey(VK_MENU, 0), 0, 0); 
    keybd_event(VK_RETURN, MapVirtualKey(VK_RETURN, 0), 0, 0); 
    keybd_event(VK_RETURN, MapVirtualKey(VK_RETURN, 0), KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0); 
    keybd_event(VK_MENU, MapVirtualKey(VK_MENU, 0), KEYEVENTF_KEYUP, 0); 
}//AltEnter

There's no need to simulate key strokes on XP and up.
