>I have an ActiveX control in my app that creates a .bmp or .wmf picture, which I then want to bring into a general field to output onto a report. I tried APPEND GENERAL FROM (Filename), but it didn't like it. Any ideas?

As far as I know, APPEND GENERAL is the way to insert a picture.

You might also try Copy & Paste. The window for the general field could be opened, and the contents of the ClipBoard inserted. This could be automated with the KEYBOARD command.
