I've worked around this saving it to a temp file with SaveAsPicture method

// trick to get a Pict out of graphics
f = GetFolderItem("PictTemp")
// convert to PICT
if f <> nil then
f .D.OT SaveAsPicture(ScaledPict)
ScaledPict = nil
ScaledPict = f.OpenAsPicture
f.Delete
f = nil
end if


Cool Runnings,
Erne.
