More functionality like printing and saving the scaled image to another file can be added to this class in a short time from code examples already included in this reference.
The native FoxPro function LoadPicture returns valid bitmap handle when applied to bitmap files (GIF and JPEG files also):
obj = LoadPicture("mybitmap.bmp")
? "Bitmap handle:", obj.handle
Actually LoadPicture() returns an object with properties Handle, Height, hPal, Type,and Width.
Also it has a single method Render called with parameters (VB syntax)
hdc As Long, x As Long, y As Long,
cx As Long, cy As Long,
xSrc As OLE_XPOS_HIMETRIC, ySrc As OLE_YPOS_HIMETRIC,
cxSrc As OLE_XSIZE_HIMETRIC, cySrc As OLE_YSIZE_HIMETRIC,
prcWBounds As Any
