Hi everyone,

I would like to write an application that has three windows, the first is a
status screen, the second is a summary screen, the third is a detail screen.
The application runs on a laptop. I want to see the status and summary
screens on a small external monitor (probably no bigger than an 8"). Is it
possible for these 2 screens be shown on both monitors or would the user
have to drag those two screens
across to the smaller screen everytime the application starts up? I am using
windows XP. I am new to C++ and writing applications for dual monitors. I
would greatly appreciate your help. Thanks.

Cheers,
James
