How to change resolution of monitor/screen
 

I want to give the user an option to change the resolution of the monitor
(800x600 - 1024x768) etc.
Is there a code I could use to do that? (using Excel 2000)


TIA

How to change resolution of monitor/screen
 

Your best bet may be to let the user do it through the Windows user
interface. You can pop open the Display Properties dialog like this:

Sub a()
SendKeys "^{Pgup}"
Shell "rundll32 shell32,Control_RunDLL desk.cpl"
End Sub

The purpose of the SendKeys is to switch to the Settings tab of the dialog.
It works for me but is never completely reliable. I haven't found another
way to open the dialog to this tab but that doesn't mean there isn't one.
