Mac Air with HP Monitor

I've connected a HP 2311x monitor to my Mac Air. The HP acts as second screen. If I drag a window to the right it will show up on the HP screen. I want it to act as the primary screen instead. Advice? Thanks in advance.

MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.7.2)

In System Preferences > Displays > Arrangement tab > Drag the grey rectangle from one screen to the other.

This will move the menubar. The dock will go also depending on where you have it displayed and the relationship of the second monitor. ie. If dock is on the bottom and second screen is aligned or lower it will appear there. If second screen is on the right but the dock is defined on the left, it will appear on the primary.
