Jon,

Could you provide more details about the used code? You can also check, if the problem exists with GDI+ image class (file #18584).

>I have written a small app to copy bmp,gif and jgp pictures to the clipboard, with help from some articles on the UT this was working wonderfully. However, when pasting the jpg and gif files into the destination application (in this case word)it changed the background colour to grey not white as in the actual picture.

>I tested a few things and found that just loading the picture into an image control also turned the background grey. I think this might be because the image control only allows for bmp's and that I need to try it using an OLE control, but it still didnt explain why the clipboard problem was occuring.
