Thanks for the reply!  It got me most of the way there.  This is what I
ended up with:

  on PrepareFrame
    r = getat(getat(the desktoprectlist,1),3)
        -- This extracts the list from within the other list
    if (r < 800) then
      go to marker("Resolution") 
        -- this is a message that tells the user they don't have the correct
settings
    else
      go to marker("User ID")
        -- this lets the user proceed to the logon screen
    end if  
  end

Thanks again,
Joe

hello joe

you can use  "the desktoprectlist".

f.ex.
on prepareMovie
  r = the desktoprectlist
  if (r[3] < 800) or (r[4] < 400) then
    alert "Resolution is to small"
    -- or go to a error frame or something else
  else
    -- ok
    go to frame "startOk"
    -- or ...
  end if
end

hope it helps
