Yes... I know that the component SysInfo Control can do it, too. But I'm looking for a different approach. |

If you just want the screen height and width, Screen.Height and Screen.Width will return the height/width in twips. (You can divide them by Screen.TwipsPerPixelX and Screen.TwipsPerPixelY to get them in pixels.) If you really prefer using the WinAPI... [after a Google search] ...you can get it with GetDesktopWindow and GetWindowRect. |
