There must be some other problem because there is nothing magical about
StretchBlt().  Like PatBlt(), BitBlt(), LineTo(), and all other GDI
functions it simply takes some immediate action upon a device context.
There is no reason why StretchBlt() would alter a DC to the point where
subsequent graphics output would not work.

If your friend can supply an appropriate code fragment we might be able
to see the problem.
