Why would you like to do that?
The users screen might not support the resolution you want to change it to.

The user probably have a resolution that he likes and his hardware works best on, so why change it?

Docking can help of course. Just look in the Properties of the control how you want to be resolution independent and set the docking, then the control automatically resizes too when the form does.
