Dynamically change screen resolution from my software

Hi to all
I'm a vb dot net programmer and would like to know how i can chage the
resolution of an screen dynamically and reset it when the user exit my
software.
Actually i can do it with vb 6.0 but it runs only on win 98 not later.
can anyone help me to find this out.i won't mind if the code is in another
language .but it should be a language of the visual studio

Thanks in advance...

I need some help with some VB language that will change the screen resolution on a monitor when a MS-Access 2000 database is opened from 1024 x 768 to 800 x 600. Any help with this effort would be deeply appreciated. Thanks in advance....

Is there a way to force a change in a user's screen resolution using VBA code without having any input from the user? Example: User John Backwards has his screen set to 800 x 600 pixels. Backwards loads an Access app that needs at least 1024 x 768 pixels so the app, on load, changes the screen resolution for him to 1024 x 768.

How can I change the size of the forms in my Windows application when the screen resolution the user has is higher than the one I developed the application in? I have a customer that has a screen resolution of 1600x1200 and I developed the application in a PC with 1024x768 resolution. Is it possible to increase the forms' sizes accordingly? Thanks.

What Screen Resolution do You use? 800 X 600 1024 X 768 1280 X 1024 Wow! 1600 X 1200 (i can't imagine this) I use 1024 X 768. For what resolution you optimize your web pages?

I am trying to get to grips with the asp.net ajaxcontrol toolkit, and am trying to add a tabbed control to the page. I have no problems within the aspx file, and can dynamically manipulate a tabcontainer which has 1 panel already, however I want to try create the TabPanels dynamically. I followed the advice here: http://www.asp.net/learn/ajax-videos/video-156.aspx (3rd comment - Joe Stagner)

A lot of users at my workplace use different screen resolutions, and I build apps to use 1680 x 1050 pixels res by default. But some users are using 800 x 600, and the apps are too large for their screen. I used to write code in Java a few years ago (2005), and you could stretch a form with the mouse and all the controls and fonts would resize to larger or smaller size. Does .Net framework 3.5 support this kind of functionality? Or -...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
