Subject Re: Copying an image from a firebird table to the clipboard
Author besterulricke
Thank you Thomas for your reply. The savetofile would have worked as well! I finally just loaded the pictures to EDBImage which has a CopyToClipboard procedure.

Form.EDBImage.CopyToClipboard;
report.QRImage.Picture.Assign(Clipboard);

This works great. If anyone wants to use it just remember to:

clipboard.Clear;

else you might end op with no resources..

Thanks again Thomas!

Regards, Ulricke
