WinXP-Home UserIDs and Monitor resolution

[MikeE]

Each user that logs on WinXP workstation wants monitor
resolution automatically set so the active user can see
the appropriate resolution. User1 wants 800x600 auto set
at logon and User2 wants 1024x768 auto set at logon. How
do I make this happen automatically for each user ?

The users know how to go to Display Properties, Settings
and make the appropriate change but since each user logons
on with an individual password they expect the Screen
settings to be auto-set at logon.

Thanks, I downloaded it and will install.
If problems arise I'll share them with you.
(There was a referenced utility from PC Mag (WinTidy 2)
that requires a $10 download fee... I didn't get it.)
Thanks again, MikeE
