When you use a VGA cable coming out of the monitor, the monitor is giving out an analog signal through the VGA connection. For the monitor to give out a digital signal, you need a DVI or HDMI cable.
The VGA to HDMI cord just converts the analog signal into a digital signal so it's not completely useless, however the quality will not be as good as an HDMI to HDMI or DVI to DVI or HDMI to DVI

you can get a device called a KVM (keyboard/video/mouse) switch which allows you to use 2 computers with a single monitor,keyboard and mouse and you can switch between the two computers.The monitor has noway of deciphering the two signals coming in from the dvi and also the analog inputs. The monitor will only accept which input is set to priority. Which means you could use the monitor to make the switch by accessing the monitor settings and switching that way.
The examples of analog devices are as following: 1. The telautograph 2. Analog synthesizer 3. Analog television 4. Analog Computer
