Hello,

I wrote a function that reads the BITMAPFILEHEADER, then the BITMAPINFOHEADER, and finally the byte array containing the color values of a 24 bit bitmap into memory. Then, I saved the color values to a text document so that I could read the values to test the function. I eventually realized that each row of a bitmap has two bytes appended to the end of it. What I would like to know is the purpose of these two bytes. Thank you for your help.
