Connecting my Dell home computer monitor with Dell Laptop from work?

I know there is a way to hook up my laptop when I get home from work to my Dell Monitor on my home computer. The laptop screen is so small, and I use a docking station at work. BUT my monitor does not have a port to connect -only a power plug and the wire to plug it into my cpu. Is this possible or is my monitor too old?Connecting my Dell home computer monitor with Dell Laptop from work?remove the monitor from your desktop and connect it to the laptop. If it has no second connection you can't run both at same time, you need to disconnect from one and connect to the other. With 2 ports on a screen you just switch back and forth.

If the adapter on the screen and laptop doesn't match, get an extra standard adapter from DVI to VGA or VGA to DVI, depends on what you have where. DVI is rectangular white, VGA trapezoid shaped blue connector.
