Hi, I'm very much a novice to vbscript...but thought this script would work. It fails on the Set curMon statement due to an invalid procedure call or argument.
Set wnd = CreateObject("UltraMon.Window")
If wnd.GetForegroundWindow() = True Then
Set sys = CreateObject("UltraMon.System")
maxMon = sys.NumActiveMonitors
For i = 0 To maxMon -1
Set curMon = sys.Monitors(i) ' This fails on an invalid argument
If curMon.Enabled= True Then desktopWrkWdth = desktopWrkWdth + curMon.WorkWidth
Next
msg = "The desktop working width is " & desktopWrkWdth & "."
ret = MsgBox(msg,vbOKOnly,"my UltraMon Script")
End If
It also fails when using the Item property Set curMon = sys.Monitors.Item(i)
I created a Select Case work around but it seems to be less than elegant. Does anyone have a method to resolve this?
Thank You, Patrick

You'll need to cast i to a long, looks like the loop counter is an integer:
Set curMon = sys.Monitors(CLng(i))
BTW, I would recommend changing the loop to use the Count property instead of NumActiveMonitors, for example you could have monitor 1 enabled, 2 disabled, and 3 enabled, and with NumActiveMonitors you would never get to monitor 3:
maxMon = sys.Monitors.Count

Thanks Christian. I knew it would be brain-dead simple and indicate my own awkwardness in coding. I'm glad it is that simple! Thank You, Patrick
