As shown in the following code fragment, which illustrates how to obtain a handle to the monitor associated with a given device, use GetDirect3D to return the Direct3D enumerator from the device and use GetCreationParameters to retrieve the value for Adapter.


    if( FAILED( pDevice->GetCreationParameters(  &Parameters ) ) )
        return D3DERR_INVALIDCALL;
    
    if( FAILED( pDevice->GetDirect3D(&pD3D) ) )
        return D3DERR_INVALIDCALL;
    
    hMonitor = pD3D->GetAdapterMonitor(Parameters.AdapterOrdinal);
