This may be a stupid post but has anyone got get dbGetImage to work? It gives me an error during the program while its running only when the function is called. Anyone that has it working want to post the source code and how they got it working too?

If not, is there a good work around?
Thanks,
Mason

It seems to work ok for me, any chance we could see some code.

I have pasted an example proggie that I used to test the function. When you press space it will take a screenie and save it under a random filename in the current working directory.

Sorry for the late reply but I ran the code and got an error right when I hit the space key, same as the one I had earlier. Here is the error (it only happens when the dbGetImage is called)

Unhandled exception at 0x013dcf4a in Get Image.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000.

This is the error I got when I ran your source code, same with my source code as well. Any one got any ideas if this is a bug?

I am running windows vista btw.

Thanks,
<Mc>

Edit: I wonder if it has to do with the function writing a file to my hardrive... Vista has really bad admin restrictions..

Oh - you got Vista - THE PLAGUE!

Try turning off UAC or whatever it is Microsft calls their "Don't actually run right unless you bow to our ways" module.

Remove UAC!!!!!!!!

it works then


you could try running your compiled app on the desk top or a folder on it, vista is evil about writing to program files by default that or root directories.

Either way No UAC is always good.
