I ca get you the complete source you need for the mapi book. Its mostly in C++ which are just wrappers around your c stuff. Do you have any interesting code ?? i like c myself ?

for 24-bit DIBs, it's almost simple. unfortunately, in general, it's not simple. DIBs come in many different flavors and it's ncessary to translate the DIB to a common intermediary format (such as raw RGB) before you can give it to any of the public doman PNG, JPG, TIFF, etc. libraries. you might want to check out ImgSource : http://www.smalleranimals.com . this is a shameless plug, since i wrote it. but, at least i can claim to know what i'm talking about when i say it can handle DIB->RGB and RGB->TIFF,JPG,BMP,PNG,PCX,TGA,EMF, etc.. the source is available, so you can always figure out what it does and tailor it to suit your needs. -c

I do remember a book by an author from Princeton Univ. I think the title is "Algorithms in C++" from AW. The book is very abstract. We may have to make something out of it. George http://gpoulose.home.att.net/

well yes i know that much .. but say if i am making a shell and it doesnt show up in my system.... or use litestep or geoshell for example.. how would i write the code for it to work.. is it a com option or an executable? or is it only loaded through the explorer shell...

I haven't used this Yahoo thingy, but it's easy to have a COM object that gets instantiated in every instance of Explorer/IE - browser helper objects.
