I am experimenting with LS Pascal right now and am having a problem with
resources.  I have a picture in SuperPaint that I have copied to my Scrapbook,
that I would now like to add to my resource file (which has icons, menus,
windows, dialogs, etc) but am not having much luck.  The picture is 340x250
pixels.  I open up my resource file and select New...  Then I pick the PICT
resource and get a new one of those.  When I open up the Scrapbook and Copy
the picture, I hear the hard disk get accessed, but when I paste it to
the PICT resource, I hear nothing and the picture doesn't show up and it
doesn't show in LS Pascal when I call and display it.  I also tried the 
"Open as a template..." option, but it would bomb after I gave it the 
dimensions.

Any ideas?
