I have a need to produce a form that will be used as a sort of Helpdesk entry form by multiiple users. This form will need text entry and sometimes a screen dump will need to be inserted.

The text part is easy. It is the screen dump that I need suggestions for. I will be saving the text data in a table and want to be able to save the screen dump to a file with the name linked to the record. The form must be capable of text entry as well as displaying a picture(scrollable)

So I need a control on the VFP form that wil allow me to paste an image from the clipboard and save that image to a BMP or JPG file as well as display it.

I have tried the free Kodak Imaging control but ir is extremely unstable in VFP7 and also though I am able to ClipboardPaste() I cannot make it permanant with Completepaste() so cannot save.

I also tried the RTF activex supplied with VFP but it too is a bit unstable and also creates a very large file.

Does anyone have any other ideas ?

Thanks

Bernard
