I'm working on automating a PowerPoint presenation. It works fine when referencing graphic images saved as files. However, I want to make it work by having the images stored as general fields.

If I manually copy a general field image to the clipboard, I can easily paste it to a PowerPoint slide. I have the code to automatically perform the paste, but I cannot determine how to automatically peform the copy-to-clipboard within FoxPro.

The _CLIPBOARD variable is just for text, and DATATOCLIP() copies text records. Is there a command or function to copy a general field to the clipboard?

Thanks!
