Thanks, that worked like a charm, another question i have had, is, when I
view the bitmap on my screen canvas, using a TImage, the bitmaps don't
usually look very good, why is this. The colours dont look right, but when I
print its fine.

The code I used (in Delphi 5) is:
Bitmap := TBitmap.Create;
Bitmap.PixelFormat := pf24Bit;
Bitmap.HandleType := bmDIB;
Bitmap.Width := Picture.Width;
Bitmap.Height := Picture.Height;
Bitmap.Canvas.Draw(0, 0, Picture.Graphic);
where Picture is a TPicture that contains a JPEG via the standard Delphi
JPEG code that has been supplied as an optional add on for yonks now. I
fairly certain that the above method should be portable to most Delphi
versions, and can be used to convert any supported TPicture graphic type
into a bit map.
Cheers, Max.
