Just in case anyone can see anything i'm doing wrong. It is failing on the last line, i get the error 'File has been deleted' which shows up at the bottom on the status bar, am running it from VFP8 command window for testing. I though that this might mean that the capture was not working but i can paste into paint at that point. All okay on Vista, perhaps the only thing that works on Vista and not on XP :p

Set Procedure To gpImage Additive
gdip = CreateObject("gpInit")
img = CreateObject("gpImage")
mx = "ghi8"
Declare Long FindWindow in Win32API String ClassName, String WindowName
wnd = FindWindow("IEFrame",null)
img.Capture(wnd)
img.SaveAsJPEG(mx)
