Thanks - this gives me the ability to write a signature, but I'm having trouble getting anything saved. I'm probably making this harder than it needs to be, but I'm trying the following with no luck:

o_object = thisform.olecontrol1.Ink.Save(2)

=SAVEPICTURE(thisform.olecontrol1,"f:\apps\am\stevejunk.bmp")

I have tried using the control itself or the object reference o_object. The latter give me an error, the former silently goes on but does nothing. It appears that save(2) will save in GIF format and savepicture works in bmp format. What's the best way to take what is captured in the olecontrol and save it to a file?

Thanks
