Yes but right now you have to save the extracted file somewhere on the 
computer and then load that image into the image control.

I have a function which puts the image into a variable that you can 
assign to the imageData of a control (thus saving you the step of 
saving to the harddrive) but there is a bug that I haven't been able to 
figure out yet which gets the image dimensions incorrect and distorts 
the image when it is displayed in Rev.  The source code will be 
available if anyone wants to tinker with it and figure out what is 
going on.
