I believe there's a TJPEG component that ships with Delphi. Have a
look for jpeg.dcu in your delphi dir - in BCB it's in ...\lib\obj, but
I can't recall how Delphi lays out the directories. This module
implements a TJPEGImage class and registers itself with TPicture (I
think) to enable it to handle reading & writing JPEG images. At worst
you'll have to instatiate a TJPEGImage to load the file, then copy the
decoded bitmap to somewhere, or paint it directly onto your display
canvas.
