I use this code to capture the screen
HWND hWnd = GetDesktopWindow();
HWND hDC  = GetWindowDC( hWnd );
Image1->Width   = Screen->Width;
Image1->Height   = Screen->Height;
BitBlt( Image1->Canvas->Handle, 0, 0, Screen->Width, Screen->Height, hDC, 0,
0, SRCCOPY );
It works first time. But when the Desktop change it still give me the first
screen shot.
