How to customize Windows Form application for Windows 8 touch keyboard?

Hi

I have an existing Windows application developed by C# with .NET framework 3.5.  It was developed two years ago and did not have touch keyboard in mind when the application was built.  Now my client has bought a Windows 8 tablet.  Although the application can run in Windows 8, text input becomes very difficult when user tries to use the touch keyboard.  First of all, keyboard will not pop-up automatically when textbox is in focus.  Even user bring up the keyboard manually, it covers half of the screen and making input impossible for the lower part of the form unless user moves the keyboard around.

I would like to know how to customize a Windows application to be usable in Windows 8 environment without a physical keyboard?  We don't have time to rebuild the whole application for Windows 8.

Thanks

Edwin
