大家知道在VB下利用API函数Bitblt可以将屏幕或者窗口上的图象拷贝到VB中的PictureBox对象中,但是如果简单的利用PictureBox的SavePicture函数来保存图象，会发现什么也保存不了。这篇文章就是介绍如何捕获并利用Windows下的OLE API函数保存图象。
首先来看源程序，首先建立一个新的工程文件，然后在Form1中加入5个CommandButton对象和一个PictureBox对象，然后在Form1中加入以下代码：

Private Type GUID

Private Const RC_PALETTE As Long = &H100
Private Const SIZEPALETTE As Long = 104
Private Type RECT

End Sub
运行程序，点击command1或者Command2就可以捕捉成个屏幕或者窗口到Picture1中，然后点击Command4或者Command5就可以保存或打印图象。
上面的程序中最重要的是CaptureWindow函数以及CreateBitmapPicture函数，CaptureWindow函数建立与要捕捉的窗口的绘图设备（Device Context）句柄相兼容的绘图设备（Device Context）句柄，然后建立相应的调色板，最后将绘图设备（Device Context）中的图象拷贝到一个hBitmap对象句柄中。CreateBitmapPicture函数则根据传递过来的hBitmap对象句柄和调色板句柄建立一个Picture对象。在将这个对象赋予PictureBox的Picture属性，然后就可以使用SavePicture函数来保存图象了。 。
