    Re: 4 questions on VB

    I'm afraid I don't know how to do any of those.
    The only thing I can help you with is if you want to turn off the monitor programmatically, in which case you can use the code sample found here > http://www.Planet-Source-Code.com/vb...56393&lngWId=1
    If I helped you out, please consider adding to my reputation!
