Changing screen resolution from Access 97 Button -??

[newcoder54]

While preparing reports, I need to change my monitor’s screen resolution often from 800 to 1054 and back. Any way to write code to do that?. Would be so very nice to just click on a button on a form to do that? Thanks

It is actually very possible. I had to do a similar thing about 2 years ago and found that you can API calls windows directly and do this. I would however suggest that you keep in one resolution or the other. I have to develop everything for an 800x600 resolution and I natively run at 1280x1024. I keep everyting on the screen withinthe dimensions of the smaler resolution.

I need to work in 800x600 whenever possible due to rotten vision but some reports need to be done in 1024x768. So I need something fater than going to the Display/ Setting all the time. Really need close to a finished product as I can do some Access coding but not up to API. Thanks - Larry
