java.awt.GraphicsEnvironment has what you need:

GraphicsEnvironment.getLocalGraphicsEnvironment().getDefaultScreenDevice().setFullScreenWindow();

Setting an application full-screen can be extremely annoying; make sure you're doing it for the right reasons.

Hey is there a way to get it so that the applet covers the whole screen and there's no minimize button or anything at the top. In other words the applet covers the screen corner to corner.

The answer is written just a few lines up. And don't reopen ancient threads, especially ones that have been completed.
