Excellent idea!
Why didn't I think of that? Well actually I did and it has served me well in more than one application.
See this thread

where I have been stashing a way a bunch of LV picture control links to help people who ask the very question you asked.
I hope this helps,
Ben
PS: If you come up with something novel that uses the picture control, please post an example and I will include your thread in the above cited thread.

Ben -
Thanks for the response, I took a quick peek at some of the posts you referenced. Is it correct to say that the software your using is "LabVIEW Datalogging and Supervisory Control Module Version 1.1 for Windows 95/NT." This is what I got from LV when I did a search for picture control.
Also something I saw that looks promising, "picture to pixmap." Thats already included in my build of labview...is this used for the same purpose? As I understand it, you have a picture going into it, and you choose the sectors of the pictures you want. I'm not too sure on the details, the help for it is a bit confusing.
Thanks for the clarification!
Sorry for the confusion, there were so many links upon links on top of each other in there, after clicking 2 I was reading something off topic, about what a forum should be lol.

I forget which version of LV included the Picture control as standard, maybe LV 6.1.
If you can open and run those examples, you have the add-ons required.
I suggest you down load Ed Dickens example and the example I posted to the Obfuse code" thread.
Have fun, nad please add to the collection if you find the opertunity.
