Well this is how you save a bitmap ...

SavePicture Picture1.Image, "c:\testing.bmp"

Hope that helps.

Try something like this :

Private Sub Command1_Click()
    Dim var_string As String
    var_string = InputBox("Please enter the full path and filename where you would like to save the picture" & vbCrLf & "Eg: c:\testing\something.bmp", "Important Notice")
    If (var_string <> "") Then
        SavePicture Picture1.Image, var_string
    End If
End Sub

If you wanted it all done graphically, use a DriveListBox and what not ...

If you are making a Paint Program may I suggest: GetBitmapBits, SetBitmapBits, GetObject, SetPixelV, GetPixel, (API CALLS), or Directdraw.
