Hey folks would appreciate any guidance anyone might have on this.

I have a Macbook running Snow Leopard and have been given a flatscreen monitor that I would like to use to expand my desktop. is it just a matter of buying the relevant mini DVI adaptor and then finding the correct display settings or is there a bit more to it?

Many thanks for any help.

Yeah it's pretty straightforward. You just go into System Prefs > Displays and click Arrangement.
