I'll just add that if it's an LCD monitor, as opposed to a CRT, it
definitely should be run at what's called its "native" resolution.
Trish should check her documentation to find out what that native
resolution is.
But if it's a CRT, I agree with Keith. It depends on your personal
preferences. As a starting point, I recommend trying 1024x768 on a 17"
monitor, and 1280x1024 on a 19" one.
