hi

I had also once did programs regarding the screen orientaion....
Your code works well in my device [ i-mate K-Jam ] works on windows
mobile 5.0..
....and...
ChangeDisplaySettingsEx() will work on Windows CE .NET 4.0 and later.

To make your changes permanent store them in registry. There are two
values in registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\GDI\Rotation key
where the system takes its orientation mode on startup:
-> Angle - DWORD value holding rotation angle in degrees. Valid values
are 0, 90, 180, 270.
-> LandscapeMode - DWORD value holding flag of landscape mode. Valid
values: 0 (portrait mode) and 1 (landscape mode).

Note that changes made using such calls are not persistent, after
soft-reset display mode will return to the previous state.
