I must do it for many time and I want to write it to package for do this
routine job, then I want to write this job to package but I didn't know how
to bring image to clipboard without use mouse click, Is someone had any
solution? and Is Mathematica had command to put image direct to clipboard?

The line below will copy the next graphic to the clipboard.
In[1]:=
NotebookFind[ nb, "Graphics",Next, CellStyle];
FrontEndExecute[{
FrontEndToken[
FrontEnd`SelectedNotebook[],"Copy"
]
}]

Perhaps you can do everything in one shot. The next line will copy All
graphics to the clipboard.
In[2]:=
NotebookFind[ nb, "Graphics",All, CellStyle];
FrontEndExecute[{
FrontEndToken[
FrontEnd`SelectedNotebook[],"Copy"
]
}]
-----------------------
Other variations are possible by using SelectionMove.
See "The Beginner's Guide to Mathematica Version 3.0" By Jerry Glynn,
Theodore Gray. Chapter 56 of this book documents all the features you can
use to manipulate the Front End. Actually I think it includes all the
features. Many of these Front End features aren't documented in the
Mathematica Book! Isn't it strange that they cover this stuff in a book
"for beginners"? I wonder what they will include in a book for "advanced
users".
