O.K. here is what i have. I have a program that runs great on a screen resolution that is higher but does not need to be on a resolution of 680 x 320. Is there any way that i can change a computers resolution when a program starts but when the program ends change it back to its normal resolution. If so, how?
THANKS!!
Could someone convert the following into something that i can use in .net i need to be able to change the screen resolution but this code is in vb 6 and some of the things make errors and i can not figure out why? Thanks a lot guys!
