Hi,

I have been using successfully the 'LoadBMPImage' function found in the example 'Creating a bitmap object from a BMP file' until now.

I have a 256 color bitmap that is rather large - 30.8 MB to be exact!

The problem seems to be at the end of the function call where it runs the command:

bitmap.Attach( hBmp );

But everything works fine with smaller bitmaps.

Anyone know why it won't load large bitmaps?
