I saw these links. But I need another thing. There is a "Read *.bmp file" VI in LabVIEW. By this vi I can to read picture
from disk int
o LabVIEW and then to insert it into Picture Control. I want to read picture not from disk but from Windows
Clipboard. How can I do it?

Alexandre,

The last link I gave you is an example that read strings from the clipboard. It uses call to the windows.dll (USER32.dll for eg) that handle the clipboard functionalities. You could probably call the same dll to transfer a picture instead of strings but this is beyond the scope of LabVIEW support and goes into Microsoft dll function calls.
Refer to www.msdn.microsoft.com for documentation on windows dll calls.
