    Question

    ok. ive asked this before, but im not sure if i made it clear as to what i need, i am a newbie at programming, and i suck haha. but anyways, im working on an image capture program, sortof like a screen capture but one where it takes a *user defined* section of the screen around the mouse and shows it in a *picture box* ..with the picture changin as the mouse is moved around.

    My Plea for help is as follows...

    how would i get the program to save the image from the picture box when the user *right clicks* the mouse anywhere on the screen?

    if it would help i am willing to give the source to whoever would be interested in heping me.
    either email me..or icq me at 49668337
    any help would be greatly appreciated

    *grin*
    A way to do it is to create a form in runtime
    ;
    Create a template form in design make it erm..
    width=5
    height=5
    ;
    in your code you create something like;
    Dim frmCaptureForm as TemplateForm (Templateform is the name of the template form )
    ;
    Mask that Captureform with some code hangin' around here
    somewhere on the net.
    ;
    Make it as large as needed.
    ;
    *thinkin'*
    ;
    If the mouse moves you can let the 'invisible' form follow it. and give it's 'background' picture to some image object on a visible form (Streched = true) and make it smaller and so you can see where you are at the moment.
    ;
    if you get it to run so far you can just save the image1 object to a bmp or jpg or something.

    Does this make sense?
