>It doesn't sound right. Can you provide more details?


Sergey:

At first thank you very much for answering. By now I've replied to my self... I have to know monitor's resolution. The problem is I use W7 and Aero makes SYSMETRIC() return false values. If I close aero SYSMETRIC() returns what I expect.

Thank you again.
