.NET Compact Framework: Text input box

I have seen PocketPC apps that resize the main form when the text input box is displayed, i.e. when a user pulls up the letter-recognizer or on-screen-keyboard, instead of that control covering up the lower half of the form, the form resizes down to get out of the way. I can't for the life of me figure out what event would fire when that happens so that I can resize my form. I have written a basic text editor for PocketPC that is nothing more than notepad, really. It's amazingly usefull, though, as I can write HTML documents and view them in IE immediately. A great way to write formatted documents when on the go and not interested in loading Pocket Word. However, the freaking text input box gets in the way. I suppose I could just permanently resize the frame down to the right size, because you aren't likely to be running the program unless you are editting the text.
