This works...
d = xmlrpclib.Binary(open("C:\\somefile.exe", "rb").read())What I need is more like screenShot = ImageGrab.Grab() d = xmlrpclib.Binary(screenShot) This doesn't work though. On 12/30/06, Kent Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Can you show the code that works? If you are writing your image data to a file, then using something like Lee's example below, that just reads the file data into a Binary object, you should be able to just create the Binary object from the image data directly.
