Save ClipBoard As image file

[Steve48]

Hi,
I am trying to save a bmp on the clipboard as a .bmp file. If there is no .bmp on the clipboard, thiscode executes with no error. If I have a bmp file saved on the clipboard, I get an error at the line shown in red.
error code
-2147467259 generic error in GDI+. Not sure what to do next. -Steve

Private Sub Button1_Click_1(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        If Not System.Windows.Forms.Clipboard.GetDataObject() Is Nothing Then
            Dim oDataObj As IDataObject = System.Windows.Forms.Clipboard.GetDataObject()
            If oDataObj.GetDataPresent(System.Windows.Forms.DataFormats.Bitmap) Then
                Dim oImgObj As System.Drawing.Image = oDataObj.GetData(DataFormats.Bitmap, True)
                'To Save as Bitmap

                'To Save as Gif
                oImgObj.Save("c:\Test.gif", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Gif)
            End If
        End If

I think you are looking for something like this.

        Dim img As Image = Clipboard.GetImage
        PictureBox1.Image = img
        img.Save("D:\tmp.bmp", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Bmp)

If there is no image on the clipboard, img would be nothing, so test for it.
