Newsgroups: comp.lang.clarion Hi Chris, On Sun, 26 Jan 2003 05:28:24 GMT, arnor@icetips.com (Arnor Baldvinsson) wrote: >some Delphi code from: And some VB code from: http://msdn.microsoft.com/archive/default.asp?url=/archive/en-us/dnarvbtips/html/msdn_msdn204.asp Using www.google.com searching for "changing screen resolution in code" without quotation marks, results in about 238,000 results and the first page of results looks pretty good to me:) The VB code is very easy to follow and converts easily to Clarion. Const CCDEVICENAME = 32 etc. would become: CCDEVICENAME EQUATE(32) CCFORMNAME EQUATE(32) DM_PELSWIDTH EQUATE(80000h) DM_PELSHEIGHT EQUATE(100000h) Private Type DEVMODE dmDeviceName As String * CCDEVICENAME dmSpecVersion As Integer dmDriverVersion As Integer ... would become: DEVMODE GROUP,Type dmDeviceName CString(CCDEVICENAME) ! Or Byte,Dim(CCDEVICENAME) dmSpecVersion Word dmDriverVersion Word ... Private Sub Command1_Click() Dim a As Boolean Dim i& i = 0 Do a = EnumDisplaySettings(0&, i&, DevM) i = i + 1 Loop Until (a = False) End Sub would become something like this: DevM DEVMODE i DWORD a BOOLEAN S CString(1) b Long Code i = 0 Loop Until (a = False) a = EnumDisplaySettings(S, i, DevM) i =+ 1 End And this: Private Sub Command2_Click() Dim b& DevM.dmFields = DM_PELSWIDTH Or DM_PELSHEIGHT DevM.dmPelsWidth = 800 DevM.dmPelsHeight = 600 b = ChangeDisplaySettings(DevM, 0) End Sub would be added to the above Clarion code like this: DevM.dmFields = BOR(DM_PELSWIDTH,DM_PELSHEIGHT) ! I Think... DevM.dmPelsWidth = 800 DevM.dmPelsHeight = 600 b = ChangeDisplaySettings(DevM, 0) I think the prototypes for the functions are in the API viewer thingy that comes with Clarion.
