Challenge: Copying an Alpha Pixmap to Clipboard

Hi,

A mini-app I'm developing requires an alpha pixmap to be sent to the clipboard so it can be pasted into Powerpoint etc. with all of the ALPHA information retained. I've found some info here on how to copy the pixmap as BITMAP data but the ALPHA info is lost. I know nothing about the Windows Clipboard API so I don't know what format I should sent it in etc.

Does anyone know how I could do this?


Thanks


Seb
