        First off, can you post your system info? From any Dabo app, go to the 
Help/About menu, and the dialog that appears will have a button that will copy 
the info to the clipboard, where you can paste it in your reply.

        Second, how are you creating the dBitmap? I just tried running a Class 
Designer session, and noticed that dBitmap isn't very well supported: the 
Picture property isn't exposed! I think that's because normally a dImage 
control is used for displaying images, whether they are BMPs, JPGs, or whatever.
