you see, this is one of the reasons i was lagging on supporting 3.5
controls in PilRC (its in now, 2.6 will be released soon). what it
sounds like you are doing is that you are using a resource object
that ONLY exists in palmos 3.5 and greater.
is the symbol running palmos 3.5? :)
standard way to do "image button" on pre-3.5? is like this (PilRC)
---
BUTTON "" ID globalFormHelpButton AT (133 1 12 12) NOFRAME
FORMBITMAP AT (PrevLeft PrevTop) BITMAP bitmapHelp
BITMAP bitmapHelp "images/help1bpp.bmp" COMPRESS
---
of course, the "bitmap" definition could use a bitmap family if
needed.. in my case, i didn't need it :)
cheers
