    Why don't you load it into a PictureBox, then save it?
    Code:
    Picture1 = Clipboard.GetData(vbCFBitmap)
Savepicture Picture1, "MyFile.bmp"

    Well just something you should do every time you access clipboard to avoid invalid property error when there's no picture.
    Code:
    if clipboard.GetFormat(vbCFBitmap) then Savepicture Clipboard.GetData(vbCFBitmap),"temp.bmp"
    Use

    <?>

    Dim sFileName as string
    sFileName = "C:\myfile.bmp"

    SavePicture Clipboard.GetData(vbCFBitmap), sFileName
