    GetBitmapBits() **Resolved**

    I need to use GetBitmapBits(), but the function requires that you pass it an HBITMAP structure as the bitmap's handle. This is a problem if you create the bitmap using load image. LoadImage returns a HANDLE structure as the bitmaps handle. How do i get around this?

    thanks,

    Explicitly cast it:
    C++
    HBITMAP hbm = reinterpret_cast<HBITMAP>(handle);
    C
    HBITMAP hbm = (HBITMAP)handle;
    All the buzzt
