I better get my eyes checked, thought it said to turn of computer

you coukd use this

This command will force your computer to go into Stand by mode in a shortcut

%windir%\System32\rundll32.exe powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState
 
Thanks but those are a little more then I'm looking for... I"m just tring to
do the equivelent of "turn off Moniter" in the "Power Options Properties"
.... however you did answer my other question.

ShutdownTray 1.3.2 is a freeware program from www.victechsoftware.com which
has an option to Turn Off Monitor.

It sits in the system tray so is always available.

I have downloaded it and I use it for Hibernation, which I find easier than
restarting the PC when I have finished with it.

Suck it and see
