Hi Michael, few lines of code to do the full job using the GdiPlusX library!
http://www.codeplex.com/VFPX/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=1711 Download the zip at the link, extract only Source\System.vcx Source\System.vct Then run the following code to capture the screen in a file: <code> local loGdiPlusX loGdiPlusX = newobject("xfcSystem", "system.vcx") local loBmp as xfcBitmap loBmp = loGdiPlusX.Drawing.Bitmap.FromScreen() loBmp.Save("ScreenCapture.jpg", loGdiPlusX.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg) </code> you can also use this syntax to capture the current form loBmp = loGdiPlusX.Drawing.Bitmap.FromScreen(Thisform) or this syntax to capture the vfp screen area loBmp = loGdiPlusX.Drawing.Bitmap.FromScreen(_screen) Then when less "under pressure" take a look at the full contenent of the GdiPlusX zip, it contains a project full of runnable samples.
