automate dual screen in xp

175 New Member
I'm wondering how I can go about writing some code that would essentially open up "display" and then "settings", to where it can choose dual monitors. Is this possible to automate in C or C++. By the way, I'm trying to do this for Windows XP.

Have you looked in the Platform SDK?

Just do some Googles that contain MSDN as part of your query.
