This code will show you how to save the current Screen Resolution and colors to an ini file then change the resolution to a resolution you specify. On exit of the Form the program will read the ini file and change the screen resolution back to those parameters... This would be great for programmers writing games that need a specific resolution to run. thanks to Steve Anderson for his tutorial on resolution changes...
