Picture in CRichEditCtrl

[cccc]

Can anyone tell how to read a picture (e g .bmp) from file and insert it into a CRichEditCtrl containing text for printing? What is the most convenient way? I dont need to edit the picture after inserting, only to print!

I think the PasteSpecial member function of CRichEditCtrl will do what you want.&nbsp;&nbsp;Here's the information:<br><br>=========================================================<br>void PasteSpecial( UINT nClipFormat, DWORD dvAspect = 0, HMETAFILE hMF = 0 );<br><br>Parameters<br><br>nClipFormat<br><br>Clipboard format to paste into this CRichEditCtrl object.<br><br>dvAspect<br><br>Device aspect for the data to be retrieved from the Clipboard.<br><br>hMF<br><br>Handle to the metafile containing the iconic view of the object to be pasted.<br><br>Remarks<br><br>Call this function to paste data in a specific Clipboard format into this CRichEditCtrl object. The new material is inserted at the insertion point, the location of the caret<br>=========================================================<br><br>Hope this helps! <p>Pat Gleason<br><a href=mailto:gleason@megsinet.net>gleason@megsinet.net</a><br><a href= > </a><br>

Thanks for answer!<br><br>I have tried PasteSpecial without success.<br><br>Instead I've been successfull in using CreateFromFile, REOBJECT and InsertObject. The problem that remains unsolved is, how to handle pictures in other fileformats (.jpg,.gif, ...).
