I have one project that I want to run on two monitors showing different information/forms etc, is this possible with one machine and one exe, or even one machine and two exe's?

Thanks Louisa
 
Of course you need 2 VGA cards, one for each screen. You will need to do some windows kernel programming!! Can`t tell u more
 
In a standard XP setup with 2 monitors you can run a single .exe on 2 screens. As far as the exe is concerned, the 2 screens just act as a single wide screen. You can position different forms freely across 1 or both monitors.
