Creating Windows Bitmaps to Save Desktop Images into BMP and JPG Files

Environment: VC6, Win2000 SP2

This dialog-based VC++ application can be used to save the desktop images into BMP or JPG files. This application can also be used to save this window image into BMP or JPG files. By making minor modifications, we can save any window image into a BMP or JPG file just by obtaining its handle. The library that I have used to process JPEG images is a standard third-party source.

The mainly used functions are SaveWindowAsFile and SaveDesktopAsFile.
