Delphi unsuported format copyfromclipboard

Hello,
I have a dbimage component which has a picture, I call the copytoclipboard to copy to an imagezoom component but I get an error "unsupported file format"
code :
procedure TForm15.Button13Click(Sender: TObject);
var
Data: THandle;
Format: Word;
Palette: HPALETTE;
begin
if imagezoom1.Visible = false then
begin
edbimage1.CopyToClipboard;
Data := GetClipboardData(format);
Palette := GetClipboardData(CF_PALETTE);
imagezoom1.Visible := true;
imagezoom1.Picture.LoadFromClipboardFormat(format,data,palette);
Any suggestions?

Hello,
I will try the registerclipboardformat, as for the data is a var Thandle for the loadfromclipboardformat(format:cf_bitmap,data: ClipBoard.GetAsHandle(cf_Bitmap),hpalette), but I don't know what to register in this format the bmp or the TJpeg?

wd123: I tried the has format but I get an "access violation error"

Hello,
Thank you for your answers, I used the savetofile and loadfromfile functions and then deleted the temp file, for the RegisterClipboardFormat I always received a unsupported clipboard format.
