There is no documentation for Borland's manager.  GloballAlloc() is part of
Microsoft's Win32 API, so refer to Microsoft's documentation.

Look at Microsoft's Win32 API documentation.

Then there really were zero scanlines to be copied in the first place.  If
you expected more, then you did not set up the parameters correctly.

If StretchDIBits() had actually failed, it would have returned GDI_ERROR
instead of 0.
