Or (cval('screensize')) and put that in the startup.dat

The settings are for the current Form Object. I am curious when you check
for the Screen resolution, what value is returned when there are multiple
monitors?
Is it Height By (MonitorCount) * Width? If it were so, you could test in
your startup for a couple of Global Vars and have a Run Select in the on
After Start EEP of every form.
I would add the Run Select to one form, then copy it from the Data col in
Sys_Forms3 and paste it into the onAfter section in the Rest of them.
