Change Screen Resolution of Secondary Monitor in C++

Question

I was wondering if someone could help me change the screen resolution of the secondary monitor using C++ on Windows 7. I understand this is not much information so if you need more just comment and I'll provide it.

Thanks in advance,

You can do this by setting the correct resolution in a DEVMODE structure, then calling ChangeDisplaySettingsEx to actually make the change.

You may want to use EnumDisplaySettingsEx to find a resolution supported by the display and graphics card in question.
