Thanks Matt! With the API that you suggest I solved my problem. For now, my vb app recognizes if the user logging in is me or someone else, and changes the screen resolution. If anyone wants it I could send to the list my code. It's made in VB5.0 Enterprise Edition, so, you may have this or any newer to modify the code. thanks a lot for everybody!

KixTart is one of the best tools I've ever found for scripting logons and while it does have tools for identifying users it doesn't have a built in function (that I could see in the docs) that allows you to change the screen resolution. If you had a command line / windows console application that changed the resolution you could call that from your KixTart script. I couldn't find such a utility but after a little searching on-line I was able to find this page which talks about the ChangeDisplaySettings windows API. http://www.vbapi.com/ref/c/changedisplaysettings.html. Someone with windows coding experience should be able to turn that into a command line utility that you could use.
