I have a fairly simple problem. I am just learning to program in windows and
am having trouble getting windows not to erase the background to black before 
reploting icons in a 7x7 grid i have. I have tried setbkmode (transparent)
and setting hbackgnd to null for the window class of the grid window. neither
of these seem to work! What am i doing wrong!?

Thanks in advance for any help
