Tell form where to display?
Hi all, here's my question. I need to make one VB.NET app which has two forms - an admin form which has start/stop buttons on it and a display form which begins counting when "start" is selected and stops counting when "stop" is clicked. Here's the tricky part: I need the app to display the admin form on a computer monitor situated at a desk and the counter needs to display on a different monitor that will be shown to the crowd (picture a debate type situation where each person is being timed in their responses. We want only the admin to see the start/stop but need the actual time to display on a large plasma screen for everyone to see).
My thoughts on how to accomplish this is run one computer with dual video cards in it. My question is, is there a way in VB.NET to tell a form which screen to display on? Or, if VB.NET doesn't differentiate between the two video cards can I somehow set where on the "one big screen" to display each form?
Or is there a simpler way to do this that I'm not thinking about? Any help would be much appreciated!
