Dual Monitors and Presentations!! Need to have ready before fair!! -

I need to run a powerpoint presentation on one monitor and a movie on the other. The both need to launch in their the appropriate monitor at startup.

I can get the power point to launch in Monitor 1 but not the movie in Monitor 2.

I was going to create a small VB app that launches the video in the second monitor.

Is there any code that can be used in VB to tell an app which monitor to start in?

Sedond question: What the heck is the width and height mesured in? Its not pixels. What is 1024 x 768 in VB?

If anyone has any suggestions on what might be a better way to do this please dont hesitate to mention it.
