auto change resolution

hi there...

i have a question.. i'm doing a system with resolution 1024 x 768. Is there any way that my system can auto change its resolution based on the visitor's monitor?

There is a function

int GetDeviceCaps(
HDC hdc, // handle to the device context
int nIndex // index of capability to query
);

which will allow you to detect the resolution of the display device in use. You could use this information to alter what your program is doing.
