.BMP is there a better way?

[jbuzbee]

I used bitmaps years ago and I can't remember how I did it.  I'm going full OpenDCL: nothing left of AutoCAD except the two upper menus and the command line.  No toolbars, Ribbon - nothing.

My problem is the .BMPs: they're numbers and there it's only like 10 or so I need the bitmaps for my tool bars.  I've enough - 50 or so.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Never mind

Hey I'm getten old

[jbuzbee]

I spoke to soon

I opened an older form with bitmaps on it and I could fill more in the pictures box with the other items.  If it doesnt have an image already there I can't add bmps.

I guess Ill just use an older form

Nope.  I can't find any way I can load an image (which becomes a number)
