how to make the debug runtime run in a second monitor

[Peted]

Hi im using XP sp2, vs 2008 pro and working in c# winforms apps.

I have two monitors when coding and was wondering if there was a way,
when debuggin a winforms app i could always make the runtime/debug
wiforms app always run in monitor number 2, to leave the vs ide
vissible in monitor number 1.

Currently the wiform app when debuggin starts only on monitor 1, and
always covers the vs 2008 IDE, and i find this annoying.

Specfically i want

Monitor 1 = vs 2008 ide
monitor 2 = debug/winforms app running/fullscreen or window

I specfically do NOT want to reverse this to the other way round,
becasue i dont like it that way.

Any advice appreciated.

thanks

What about having a base form with fixed start up position/size and
inheriting from it in your main app?

I do this as my base form saves its location and window state so I don't
have to repeat that code in every app.
