how to get user resolution??

In a web browser of an offline projector swf ?

For a projector app (and not in a swf in the browser)
you will want to look at FSCommand:

1.) fscommand function (http://livedocs.adobe.com/flash/8/main/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00001727.html) - fscommand("fullscreen", true);
2.) Using FSCommand in Macromedia Flash projectors (http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=tn_14280&sliceId=2)

For in a web browser you can look into these
http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/fullpage.html (look at page source)
then download from here - http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/#download

If all you trully want is the "user resolution" as your
title says then look into the - System.capabilities (object)

System.capabilities.screenResolutionX
System.capabilities.screenResolutionY

That should cover all the areas to get you started ;)
