Hi!

I'm trying to display 256-color bitmaps in a dialog using TC++ and the  
Resource Workshop. Some kind souls on this group told me to create a  
bitmap control in the dialog and give it the Control ID (of the bitmap)  
minus 1000. It works, except the graphics is only displayed using 16  
colors. 

I've set the 2-16-256-color switch correctly. The help system tells me  
that my program must provide support for 256 colors. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!!!
