This is the way to do it...

WOW, I'm gonna test this later when I get to the office.

Windows Vista RDP sessions (mstsc.exe) will support multiple monitors by adding the SPAN command line parameter.  It works pretty well and it beats having to use GotoMyPC or VNC or something of that nature.

Sorry... SQL Server Management Studio on the left... still under the effects of all the beer I had in the last class...

Hey Keith.

Thanks for the tip, I will have a look at it.

Yeah, I bought 3 LCDs to put in my desktop, then I didn't really know what to do with the 21" Sony I had, so I made it the fourth on the top. But Ben is right, looking at it on the top got a bit difficult, so I made my chair a bit higher and position in the center of them all...

In this picture you should see the Enterprise Server on the left, main VS in the middle, Properties-Datasources-Solution Explorer-Windows(Errors,Warnings,etc) on the right, DDT-BO Mapper on the top.

And when I go to a client I have to work in that 12" notebook I bought when I was in the class.  

I'm trying not to leave the office anymore...

That's an image I could have lived without!

You're crazy Ivan!



After going back and forth with desktop and laptop, I've opted to use laptop that I can go to patio, living room, bedroom (bathroom ), use it at my convenient, rather sitting behind desk all the time. So, I just use notebook in 1600x1200 resolution and works pretty good!

The only remote client I have found that supports multiple monitors is GoToMyPC and it does it very well, easily worth $20.00 a month.

Ah, it's diminishing returns... I end up ignoring one of my monitors, and since much of my work is done remotely, I've got VS down to one monitor (since you can only use one over RDP) by auto-hiding all of the dockable windows that I can.
