You need an Xtra for this--Buddy API. Check it at www.mods.com.au.

Here's some code to set the resolution:

global gScrHgt
global gScrWidth
global gScrDepth
global gCantBeSet
global gChanged

   -- test & set the display size & depth
   gScrHgt = baScreenInfo("height")
   gScrWidth = baScreenInfo("width")
   gScrDepth = baScreenInfo("depth")
   if gScrWidth < 800 then
     if gScrDepth < 16 then
       gCantBeSet = baSetDisplay (800, 600, 16, "temp", false)
       CheckChangeScreen
     else
       gCantBeSet = baSetDisplay (800, 600, gScrDepth, "temp", false)
       CheckChangeScreen
     end if
   else
     if gScrDepth < 16 then
       gCantBeSet = baSetDisplay (gScrWidth, gScrHgt, 16, "temp", false)
       CheckChangeScreen
     else
       gChanged = FALSE
       gCantBeSet = FALSE
     end if
   end if

then to reset it:

on stopMovie
   if gChanged then
     baSetDisplay (gScrWidth, gScrHgt, gScrDepth, "temp", false)
   end if
end


>How to check whether a specific application is installed on a users system.

I think you need another Xtra, MasterApp, for that. I haven't used it much, 
though, so I can't give you any example code. Check the archives, 
though--there was a thread about that within the last month.
