Scart to VGA (or vice versa) Possible?

I have a soon to be redundant DVD player with a SCART socket, and I also have an LCD monitor with a VGA socket. On the face of it, the two items would make a dedicated DVD system.
I have a feeling that linking the two, would not be as simple a matter as obtaining a lead with appropriate plugs at each end. Is there more to this than meets the eye? (So to speak) Differing signal characteristics, for instance?
Incidentally, the DVD player also has a phono type socket labelled 'Co-axial - Digital'. Would this be of any use in the system I have in mind?

Any assistance gratefully received. Ta

Yours confusingly,
