Default How to get screen size ?

It is pretty much the same as the third piece of code i gave you:

Declare Function GetSystemMetrics Lib "user32" _
(ByVal nIndex As Long) As Long

Sub test()
MsgBox prompt:=GetSystemMetrics(0) _
& "x" & GetSystemMetrics(1)
End Sub

Worked for me. Probably a word wrap problem.

Thanks for your response and appreciate your help. I copy
the code and try but keep geting 0x0 (I must have done
something incorrectly). I did try the one suggested by
Tom Ogilvy and is working.

Thanks and Merry Christmas

Leo

Do any one know how to obtain the screen size property

via
VBA ? (For example 1280 by 1024, 1024 by 768 ...)

I have developed an application at home but it look

aweful
when I try to run it at work because it was based on the
screen size used at home.

Help
