    I am using NVidia video splitter card to split my windows XP on dual monitors. In configuration I set monitor as primary (left) and the other secondary (right), where I am displaying the windows desktop icons on the secondary monitor and taskbar is limited to the primary monitor. Now I am running my custom applications, where the applications are choosing where to show on their own - some moving to primary and some to secondary, I want to control the application display. If someone knows how to do it, appreciated. Thanks.

        Are you wanting to do this with code or just have them be in the right monitor when they open? If it's the latter simply move them to the monitor you want them in by dragging and when you close them they will save that position for when you reopen them. ATI video cards come with Hydravision and it lets you do some pretty cool stuff to your windows and it has support for [SETTING] windows position and keeping it there. Nice product and free.
