I need to expand my listview, when some one double click on the main form title bar, at mean time the list view which is also situated on main form becomes larger as the main window expands.
while i am using this code for desired action.

What I have tried:

Private Sub MDIPar1_DoubleClick(sender As Object, e As EventArgs) Handles Me.DoubleClick
       ListView1.Dock = DockStyle.Fill
   End Sub

Try using Control.Resize Event (System.Windows.Forms)[^] event to react on all size changes. Just investigate the Form.WindowState Property (System.Windows.Forms)[^] to see if the window is maximized or not.

I'm not sure if I fully understand but if you need to fetch data at the same time, simply write the code for fetching after setting the dockstyle.

i have a group box at the top of list view when program is loaded the screen is in add record mode and it shows all required textboxes and other controls, but if the user need to look the full screen form it simply double click on the title bar and the list view control expands also and show all data which is in data base. do you get my point.

I'm not sure if I understand but when the window is maximized you can modify the controls as you like in the resize event. If you need to make modifications to the layout or to the content of the controls or anything else, simply add proper code.

I can't help you much further since I don't have the layout or the requirements. However, if you have specific problems, I suggest posting the relevant code parts along with a new question.
