| I am trying to load one of the Stock bitmaps - the close 'X' in the
| top left corner of a window - into a bitmap. I have found some
| examples of how to do it for VB but can't get it to work on Delphi.
| VB uses the LoadBitmapBynum API call but the few clues I have found
| in Delphi indicate that the .LoadFromResourceID method is the way to
| go. But I can't get either way to work. Does anyone have any pointers
| to what I should be doing?

You could use DrawFrameControl(DC, Rect, DFC_CAPTION,
DFCS_CAPTIONCLOSE) to paint a close button (with its border) on an
arbitrary DC. You can combine with "or" DFCS_CAPTIONCLOSE with one or
more of the state DFCS_flags (DFCS_PUSHED, DFCS_FLAT etc.) to change
the state it will be painted in.
