Has anyone been able to save a clipboard file to a image file?
Like a *.bmp, *.jpg. I am using visual basic 6 with Leadtools eval multimedia kit.

Thanks      

You mean something like this:

' Setting some image file to clipboard     Clipboard.SetData LoadPicture("C:\T-Shirt.bmp")          ' Saving picture from clipboard in bmp format     SavePicture Clipboard.GetData, "C:\SavedPic.bmp"

Yes, Thank you I will try the codethis morning. I went to Microsoft help files. There code is a little bit longer. The code from Lead Tools was extremly long.

Thank You Very much. I will try the code in 15 minutes.

Well, if you want to use some proffesional routines for saving a file (to a jpg format, for instance), then the code will be much longer. This is as simplest as it can be done, and it only saves in bmp format.

Your code is perfect. I do have some code from Microsoft to save the file in different formats. However the code you supplied is simple and sweet. It is a pefect way to get the job done. If I do need to save the file in different formats I will change the code. But for now your code is GREAT.

Thank You
