- Yes, I'm looking for the same thing. The documentation describing
- the bitmap file formats in the Win 3.1 API is OK, but there
- are lots of details to consider (compression, e.g.).
- I could probably get it to work, given sufficient time, but this
- is such a standard task that I'd prefer to use published/debugged
- code.
-
- BTW, I'm looking for code to load ICONs from disk, too.
