Please note the recent posting from Richard Burmeister about Bitmap
Families.  Use a Form Bitmap resource on your form and give it the ID of
your Bitmap Family.  Your Bitmap Families should not have any overlapping
IDs with Bitmaps, since those two resources are considered as the same kind
of resource.  If your Form Bitmap is expecting the family, then the OS will
select the bitmap to use from that family.
