If you want to do drawing with your bitmap, use the LoadImage() function, with hinst as NULL, lpszName as the path to your bitmap, uType as IMAGE_BITMAP and fuLoad as LR_LOADFROMFILE. This will then return a HANDLE which can be used in GDI drawing functions. Regards, --Perspx

use LoadImage() with the LR_LOADFROMFILE flag.

If you have loaded the bitmap once you havent to load it anymore. :doh: You can make copies or use it. Read the CBitmap class in MFC. :zzz:

You can't. Only resources have resource IDs!

As Mark said, resource ID's are for resources only. What is it that you are trying to achieve? Regards, --Perspx
