Check out UA(4) in your manual.  If you use the -d option on the line that
calls the application from your ua control files ($UA/Office, $UA/Suffix, etc)
that will run the application in a "dimensionless" (ie full-screen) window.
eg:
	Open = EXEC -d /usr/local/bin/yourappl
or-
	Run = SH -d /usr/bin/script

hope this helps -Don
