Hello, Once again I would like to ask anyone out there who knows of the windows 3.0 .BMP format. An explanation similar to Petzold would be appreciated. A Mr. Ken Sykes suggested I buy the SDK. I think he works for MS or has 100 shares. I really can't afford it. What I hope to do is save screen dumps in .BMP format. Thank you once again. Kevin M. Reilly

I have moved the windows chess.bmp file to my OS/2 machine, and used it in a number of bitmap manipulation programs.... Charles Petzold gives a good description, if you need more, I can probably quote you the format from the OS/2 Programmer's Manual... Good Luck...

Two pointers to the BMP format.
1. The SDK documentation. My book is titled Microsoft Windows
Programmer's Reference. About $35 at a local discount book store.
2. PC Mag. Starting 1 or 2 issues ago and still continuing in
Petzold's column is a good discussion about windows bitmaps and their
formats.
