I recently created an application on my 19" monitor - looked good.
Tried running it on a 17 inch monitor - didn't look so good anymore.
Is there a way that monitor resolution/screen size can be detected, so that
I could keep my controls and form displayed and centered without resorting
to scroll bars?
Same problem with running a form Maximised or minimised.
Is there a way to detect if a form is in it's maximised or minimised state,
and it's current size, so that controls can be centered?

'SystemInformat ion.PrimaryMoni torSize'
'SystemInformat ion.WorkingArea '
'SystemInformat ion.VirtualScre en'
'Screen.Primary Screen.Bounds'
'Screen.Primary Screen.WorkingA rea'
When using multiple monitors:
'Screen.AllScre ens'

Check the form's 'WindowState' property in its 'Resize' event.

Hi,
The SystemInformati on.PrimaryMonit orSize will tell you the screen
size in pixels. The forms windowstate property will tell you if the form is
minimized, maximized, or normal.

javascript ot detect the srecc size:
function ck_res()

Is there some way --using, say, DOM or javascript-- to detect the
current pixel width and/or height of a relatively sized table or of
one of its columns or rows. I'm going to be writing javascript to
adjust my page to the viewer's browser window dimensions and this
would sure be great information to have.

I created my page to work on a 800x600 size window, but when the user has
his/her screen set on a larger size, they'll get a empty area at the right

I don't like this, looks unproffessional, so I want to fill it with
something, but only if the size is larger then 800x600.
How can I detect this in the FormOpen part of my...
