[comp.windows.ms.programmer] Modifying metafiles - how?????

dmurdoch@watstat.waterloo.edu (Duncan Murdoch) (06/13/91)

The Windows Programmer's Reference says (in section 2.14.2) that GetMetaFile
"opens a metafile stored in a disk file and makes it available for replay
or modification."  As far as I can find, that's the only hint in the book
that once you call CloseMetaFile the metafile isn't written in stone, 
forever unmodifiable.

Can anyone tell me how to re-open a metafile, so that I can append some more
graphics operations to it?  

Thanks in advance.  Please reply either by email or by posting; I'll summarize
email responses if there's any interest.
