You don't have to worry about the bitmap yourself. The help (i) icon is defined in the Palm OS font "Symbol 11" as character 4. The "selected" version is character 10 in the "Symbol" font. All you would need to do is set the right foreground and background colors then use WinDrawChar to draw the character in the appropriate spot. Of course, you get the colors using calls to UIGetColorTableEntryIndex -- UIDialogFrame and UIDialogFill seem the appropriate entries to use. -- For information on using the Palm Developer Forums, or to unsubscribe, please see http://www.palmos.com/dev/tech/support/forums/
