Took me two seconds to find http://www.xtremedotnettalk.com/showthread.php?t=80165 with google.

however, this is a dumb idea, unless your app runs full screen, and always runs on a 4:3 aspect ratio monitor ( which they don't sell anymore ) and the user of your app would never want to jump between applications. I'd consider any app that changes my screen resolution to be poorly written and poorly designed.
