Bitmaps
Jonathan & Ted: I have experimented with metafiles from VB and their import
into other programs. A .WMF file as created by Corel and Designer has what
is called an Aldus header. This header includes the default sizing and
scaling info for the metafiles. The programs that I have played with that
accept metafile import such as WFW, AMI, PM4, and even VB want metafiles
with the Aldus header.
I haven't found any docs about the Aldus header, but did find sample
source code in MSOPSYS. Its not too hard to create a .WMF file, in fact
was going to do one in a project for the HT book, but didn't discover how
to until after the deadline.
BTW, received by QCWIN. Its good but really makes you appreciate the
elegance of VB.
