Windows 7 automation: Screen Resolution - Set Monitor as main display

From excel, and using the terminology of ControlPanel// Display/ Screen Resolution, how do I use code to set my PC laptop's screen as the MAIN DISPLAY?

My project uses an extension screen, and I must ensure that the property of 'Main Display' is not altered when I use automation to fit the dimensions of office Application windows to their respective screens.

Thanks,
Kelvin

Glad you got back to me.
I guess A is quasi-exceptional in my background.
But Expert enthusiasm is what I depend on, so I will ask the Admin to boost the last rating to A. With appreciation!

Not sure if that will be effective in correcting the underscore, but I do hope the changed rating comes through.

Best regards and thanks
Kelvin
