Cant "picture" Format from Clipboard to .bmp file type
This actually being done in VB.Net. But I am using hte Excel 12.0 object
model. I could not get an answer in the VSTO/VB forums and thought maybe I could get it here. Note as this is in VB I am using Excel enumerations but it is essentially VBA. I can do the following in VB: xlSheet.UsedRange.CopyPicture(Excel.XlPictureAppea rance.xlScreen, Excel.XlCopyPictureFormat.xlBitMap) 'Copy Image from Clipboard to temp folder Dim oImgObj As Image = Clipboard.GetImage oImgObj.Save(FileCompareFolder & "\[" & xlBook.Name & "]" & xlSheet.Name & ".bmp", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp) However when I change the first line to (note the underlined portion) xlSheet.UsedRange.CopyPicture(Excel.XlPictureAppea rance.xlPrinter , Excel.XlCopyPictureFormat.xlPicture ) I get the following error message:"Object reference not set to an instance of an object." on the line: oImgObj.Save(FileCompareFolder & "\[" & xlBook.Name & "]" & xlSheet.Name & ".bmp", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp) Why is this? When I do this manually by copying ot clipboard and saving in Paint I can use the bmp extension. Thanks EM |

Hi,
Make sure you have SP2 installed as not being able to copyas Bitmap was a bug. Cheers Andy -- Andy Pope, Microsoft MVP - Excel http://www.andypope.info "ExcelMonkey" wrote in message ...

I am using XP and VS 2008. When you say SP2 do you mean for the XP
Operating System or for Visual Studio 2008? Thanks EM "Andy Pope" wrote: Hi, Make sure you have SP2 installed as not being able to copyas Bitmap was a bug.

No this didn't fix it. I didn't have SP2 installed in Office 2007. But
installing it still produces the same error: "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." on the line of code: oImgObj.Save(FileCompareFolder & "\[" & xlBook.Name & "]" & xlSheet.Name & ".bmp", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp) And again this fails when I use the xlPrinter and xlPicture properties but it works when I use the xlScreen and xlbitmap properties.
