Hey Mundo,

If you are using the CWgraph in VB 6 the method to copy the image to the clipboard is Clipboard.SetData CWGraph1.ControlImage, vbCFEMetafile.  If you are programming in .NET, I would recommend using our .NET graphs rather than the activex graphs.   All of the .NET graphs have a method called ToClipboard() that will send the graph image to the clipboard.

thanks Pat,

Clipboard.SetData CWGraph1.ControlImage, vbCFEMetafile

works perfect.

for .Net which .NET graph are you talking about?, Measurement Studio for .Net?

Hey Mundo,

I was referring to the waveform graph or scatter graph in Measurement Studio for .NET.  These .NET graphs are assemblies rather than activex controls for use with Visual Studio 2003 or 2005.  If you have a version of Measurement Studio higher than version 7.1, it should include the ToClipboard method I was referring to for both of these graphs.
