Hi Jim, I'd suggest using the PilRC plugin for CodeWarrior (it sounds like you are using Constructor :). Look in the archives, I posted to the list something about using bitmap families using PilRC. Basically, add a Form Bitmap in Constructor, and set it's ID to some value you determine, then generate a BIPMAPFAMILY using PilRC with your ID for the Bitmap Family. At runtime, the OS will grab the bitmap family referenced in your Constructor-generated form bitmap from the app resources and you will be on your way.
Oh, PilRC is at www.ardiri.com and you can find a link to the plugin from there.
