Is there a way to print a panel that is viewable with word, or excel?

[cviguy]

I have read the information about setting the printer to output .eps. I need to know if it is possible to save the file in a format that will allow you to see the picture in word, or excel. I need to be able to store the file with the picture as well as print it.

Use the function GetPanelDisplayBitmap to get an image of the panel. Then use SaveBitmapToBMPFile or SaveBitmapToJPEGFile to save it to a file that Excel, Word, or other applications can read. If you don't have these functions (because you have an older version of CVI), look for the SaveBitmapToFile function in the Programmer's Toolbox.
