Anyone know how to display 24 Bit bitmaps?

Thanks in advance,

Try using the functions DDBtoDIB and DrawDIB, from the Bitmap and Palette section
of this site.

In DrawDIB, if there are more than 256 colors,
you should perhaps call
CreateHalftonePalette() and still create and
realize a halftone palette --
this will give you sme sort of display on any display setting. The colors may not look too good, though...
