[comp.windows.ms.programmer] How to display an icon read from a file ??

neh@rci.dk (Niels Erik Holm) (05/30/91)

I've asked this question before, but didn't get any answer.

I want to read a file representing an icon (a *.ico file) and to display
the icon on the screen.

Is there an easy way to do this, or do I have to read the icon (a bitmap)
from the file, do som BitBlt's etc. ???

Any hints are appreciated.
