Is there a command that can capture a screen shot and save it to a file. This function would be useful aswell for a paint program where as a user can save his picture as "mypic.bmp". I need to input a name to save the file as, then i need to be able to save that file as an image file of the screen shot. thanks, -matt -Go T-Cats!- |

if you create a new pic (save to a variable) it can be saved as a pic, but its not formatted right or something, so you can never open it up again, or so i think... ![]() |

no. .. . . .you can save it, but only as a .bmp and that takes a lot of memory and HD space *like 2mb per pic.. so yea.. just a caution.. Pic.ScreenSave i beleive is the command.. . have u heard of f10 ? common. |

Pic.ScreenSave Part of Pic module Syntax Pic.ScreenSave (x1, y1, x2, y2 : int, fileName : string) Description: Pic.ScreenSave saves a portion of the screen into a file in a format specified by the file name. -- straight from the help. |
