I am trying to get the ShowDIB example program in the SDK to work with 24 bit DIB files. The program hangs when it tries to load them. Other formats, such as 8 bit or monochrome bitmaps, work just fine. I have traced through the code and it dies in the Windows routine that creates the DDB. Has anyone gotten ShowDIB to work properly with 24 bit images? I have also not gotten ShowDIB to write an RLE compressed file. This is in the Options section under Save. I looked through the manual, but very little mention is made of the compressed file except that the flags exist. There is some discussion of what the format looks like. Thanks in advance, Jim ..!uunet!pws.bull.com!newmedia!jim
