Thanks in advance

You want the GetSystemMetrics function from the pywin32
packge:

<code>
from win32api import GetSystemMetrics
print "width =", GetSystemMetrics (0)
print "height =",GetSystemMetrics (1)

</code>

Please think about the fact that people sometimes now have 2 and even
3 monitors. Don't do anything with this that would stretch your
application across all 2 (or 3) monitors. I think screensize isn't
going to give you enough information to automatically size or
position a window.
