This little app converts BMP files to JPG files. For those of us who do not have commercial programs that do that (and much more), one use is to enable you to copy a screen, error message, or whatever to Paint, then to convert the BMP file that Paint creates to a JPG file so that you can post the picture so that it can be seen in a post.
BTW, for those of you who don't know how to do that you

Maybe it's an old control that I passed along to myself from VB5 (or earlier). In any case, check your Components and see if you have Wang Image Edit Control in your list and browse for it if it's not there. If you can't find it then send me an email and I'll send you the ocx in a zip file. Unfortunately the zip is just slightly over the size limit allowed for posting here.
Here is an updated version of the code that MartinLiss posted. I am not sure if it is true for everyone, but the conversion did not work for me at first, so I changed a little something up, and it worked. Good luck.
Interesting. I now get the same "can't Load ocx" error when I try to open your project. What control are you trying to use? Can you attach it in a zip file?
i dont suppose any ones heard of the intel ijl15.dll file before? this also works wonders when converting bmp to jpg. ill see if i can find the example on my box somewhere.

I have really been needing a utility to convert BMP to a pure JPEG lately, but have only found Bmp2Jpeg.dll. I really don't want to have to use the Image Edit control, so I x'ed that off of my list. I'd prefer to use a DLL, so it would be greatly appreciated if you do find an example. Thanks in advanced.
here u go! found an example finally. so much crap on my pc.
its from a program that i made, but you should be able to understand it and mess with it any way you have to.

Is there any fee's etc for using & distributing this DLL in your own app's?
