Indeed Patrick.
And to further complicate matters we want to do this for some-one elses
application.
Personally I'd change screen resolutions and/or buy a bigger monitor - this
sort of thing should only be an issue at 640 x 480. We could all have done
so with the time we have spent not finding a solution.

The appbar(s) (including the Taskbar) are to respond to this message by
changing their z-order so they fall to the bottom. An application window can
then go full-screen by occupying the space normally occupied by appbars.
I think the key question to ask is, who is responsible for sending the
message,
for example does the OS send it in response to something else, and does it
send
the message to each appbar.
