Alexandr ,

Could you please elaborate more on hDC from Printer common dialog

I tried

loComDlg = CreateObj("MSComDlg.CommonDialog")
handle = loComDlg.ShowPrinter()

it returns .null.
Is there any other way to get hdc without dialog ?

Thanks
Michael


>StdPicture has a Render method. For instance, you can get an hDC of a printer from a Printer common dialog and print image using Render method. If you need to display image of form, then you can use one of ActiveX controls (ListView control with Picture property, for example). BTW a LOADPICTURE() in VFP also returns StdPicture object.
