Does anyone have any details on what the PictureData structure looks like?

Thanks in advance.

If you GoogleGroups for my last name, PictureData, CF_DIB you will find
several threads where I explain in detail the format of the PictureData
property. It's basically a CF_DIB or CF_ENHMETAFILE.

There are several samples on my site showing you how to read/write this
property.

What exactly are you trying to accomplish?

I was hoping to accomplish 2 things:

1) see if there was an area I could perform drawing functions, particularly
black/white lines, dots and predrawn musical symbols.
2) check if copying from one image control to another image control would
change image sizes (particularly reducing to set sizes for websites). Need
to save as JPG and/or GIF.

I'd like to do these without using external objects or references as my
'Package and Deployment' add-in no longer work due to Microsoft restrictions
on Office2000.

Your Google information is great. It'll take some time to digest, but I'm
sure I'm going to enjoy it.

Thanks

Dominic there is a pseudo Paint Program I wrote just for an exercise several
years ago. You could easily adapt it for Musical notes,
http://www.lebans.com/paintprogram.htm

There is also a vbPictureBox class, written completely in VBA, which will
allow you to accomplish your goals with very little modification. It
contains two resizing methods, one is a very high quality resize function.
The class currently only saves to BMP format. There is another Image class
on my site, LoadSaveJpeg.that allow syou to save to JPEG but it requires a
standard windows DLL(included in my download) that does not have to be
registered or have a Reference set to it.

Copying the PictureData prop between controls has nothing to do with
resizing.

Besides what Stephan responded, check out my response I wrote today to

Thanks Salad, That's going to be an exciting direction to explore. Beats
me having to program symbols into my drawing routines is the symbols are
already available.
