GetPicture

Get a handle to a specified 'PICT' resource

#include <ToolUtils.h> Toolbox Utilities

short picID ; resource ID of desired picture

returns handle leading to a Picture; 0 if error

GetPicture searches the resource list until it finds the specified picture. It

reads the resource from disk (if necessary) and returns a handle to a

variable-length Picture structure.

picID is the resource identifier of the desired picture.

Returns: a 32-bit Handle leading to the picture data. If the resource can't be

found, the return value is NIL (0).

Notes: This function is used to get a picture from the caller's application resource

file. It is functionally equivalent to:

hPic = GetResource('PICT', picID );
