Hi, Is there a shortcut, vb script, or run command I can use to turn off my
monitor?


Thanks, John,

Thanks Kelly.

What exactly does that do?

Do you run that each time you want the monitor to trun off?


Thanks, John.

omg, you MVP are so n00b!!

what john wants to know is, is there a way to put his monitor to standby on demand.
I know there's a way to do it but i'm not sure how.

in c# u can definetly do it.
i'm sure vb script you can also.
there are also free software outthere that allows you to do this.
