>>Is it possible to take the result contained in

.Imaging.ImageFormat.Png

and stuff it directly into a VFP Image Object so I don't have to save to file then read the file? I thought I had done this once but it was some time back.

Cesar,
I cannot thank you enough. Not just for this help but for all the work you have put into GDI+ to make it what it is.

You might be interested in some speed test I ran on the above 3 samples.

#1 1.8 seconds to run. About the same or longer than saving to a file and assigning it to the image.
#2 less than .4 seconds
#3 more than 1 second.

The results on screen are very noticeable.
Thanks again.
