    Hi.

    I don't know any OCX that does what you want, but for BMP, the standard SAVEPICTURE command in VB should do the job for BMP format.
    For JPG, take a look at Fox's web page (http://orion.spaceports.com/~mccloud/index.html) there is a lot of nice samples there and there is one for saving a form/picturebox to a JPG file. I haven't looked at it yet, Ijust know its there.
    For GIF.... well , beats me!

    Good luck!

    Just declare the APIs
    GetDesktopWindow
    and
    GetDC or GetWindowDC
    BitBlt

    than you can blt the desctop to a picturebox. Alain already explained how to save it. It's like a 10 line program.

    Code:
