Besides, the DC should be properly freed. I met a remark that using ReleaseDC instead of DeleteDC can cause an access violation.

Hello Igor,

can you see that there is something wrong in the code snippet written in the above link (http://forums.codeguru.com/showthread.php?t=523980)?

MikeAThon already pointed out what's wrong. No one knows what are those "tXXXX" types are.

Secondly, and again, instead of snippets, how about a small program that shows the error? How hard is it to create a tiny but full program that demonstrates the error? If the problem are those 3 lines you posted, then it can't be that difficult to write a program that uses those 3 lines, right? Shouldn't that be your next move, instead of us having to guess what the issue is?
