An Easier Way:

Public WM_SYSCOMMAND As Integer = &H112
Public SC_MONITORPOWER As Integer = &HF170

_
Private Shared Function SendMessage(ByVal hWnd As Integer, ByVal hMsg As Integer, ByVal wParam As Integer, ByVal lParam As Integer) As Integer
End Function

Private Sub MonitorToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MonitorToolStripMenuItem.Click
SendMessage(Me.Handle.ToInt32(), WM_SYSCOMMAND, SC_MONITORPOWER, 2)
End Sub
