	Anybody familliar with IBM's VGA graphics interface?  Well,
I've got a problem...  I can draw a graphics picture using any old
pain package (deluxe paint for example), and I can save it to disk.
My problem is that I cannot find any way to load and display that
picture from disk from inside a quick basic program.   There must
be some way to do it.   
	If no quick basic commands (or function calls from within quick
basic) can load and display that picture, would there be a way to 
're-format' the saved picture to an ordinary get/put type picture.

	Any help would be greatly apprecieated.
