Clipboard problem

Hi All,
I am trying to save the clipboard content as a bmp file. I tried like this:

Code:

---

HANDLE hBmp;
        OpenClipboard();
        hBmp = GetClipboardData(CF_DIB);       
        if(hBmp)
        {
                if (WriteDIB("c:\\TEST.BMP",GetClipboardData(CF_DIB)) == TRUE)
                {
                        MessageBox("Success","BMP Written",NULL);                       
                }
                else
                {
                        MessageBox("Failed","BMP Write",NULL);
                }
                EmptyClipboard ();
        }
        else
        {
                printerror(GetLastError());
        }
        CloseClipboard();       



void printerror(long err)
{
        LPVOID lpMsgBuf;
        FormatMessage(FORMAT_MESSAGE_ALLOCATE_BUFFER|FORMAT_MESSAGE_FROM_SYSTEM|FORMAT_MESSAGE_IGNORE_INSERTS,NULL,err,MAKELANGID(LANG_NEUTRAL, SUBLANG_DEFAULT),(LPTSTR)&lpMsgBuf,30,NULL);
        MessageBox( NULL, (LPCTSTR)lpMsgBuf, "Error", MB_OK | MB_ICONINFORMATION );       
                }

---

I am getting NULL in hBmp. So if condition fails. I tried to get the error code. But error message says "Function completed successfully". Can anyone help me where i went wrong??
Thanks in advance,
Saravanan.

I can't see why GetLastError() would return that value. Very strange.

Note that you should delete lpMsgBuffer to prevent a memory leak.

Hi Benny,
I tried with other constant like CF_BITMAP. Again I am getting hBmp to zero.
But one thing i noticed. If I place CF_TEXT in GetClipboardData() then I am getting a valid handle i.e. valid hBmp. But since it is in text I am not able to write the contents as bmp file. So whats really going on here.
Can anyone help me!!
