    Hello. CDC *pDC = GetDC(); CDC tmpDC; BOOL bRet=tmpDC.CreateCompatibleDC( pDC ); //bRet is 1 => it means succes. CBitmap m_bmp; bRet= m_bmp.CreateCompatibleBitmap( pDC, rect.Width(), rect.Height() ); //bRet is 0 ==>it is an error. DWORD err=GetLastError(); //err is 8. --> it is an error. error code 8 means : "Not enough storage is available to process this command. " here, my hdd is 50M remains, and I have enough space fo runing some program... Why, CreateCompatibleDC() return error code 8? my System is abnormal? Thanks.

      Your CRect rect is possibly 'abnormal'. Check its dimensions. :)

        "Not enough storage" here means memory. rect not initialized? I also think rect is the problem.
