Location: USA                A couple of my apps are supposed to be fullscreen, 
even with multiple monitors; unfortunately, setting the appropriate window's 
FullScreen property only fills the first monitor, not all of them.
Does anybody know how I can get the total screen size, even with multiple 
monitors, then resize my window to fill them all?
I already tried looping through the Screen objects, getting the total width and 
height, and setting my window to (0, 0, TotalScreenWidth, TotalScreenHeight); 
apparently RB doesn't actually position the window at the passed (Left, Top) 
coordinates, but puts the upper left corner of the client area there instead: 
my window's MenuBar went offscreen, and the spot at (0, 0) was the upper left 
corner of the client area.
API calls will be fine for this (I'm actually expecting to need them, but a 
couple of hours on MSDN didn't turn up anything particularly useful. Given 
Windows Explorer's problems handling multiple monitors, I'm not surprised)

Thanks!
