As of OS5, isn't accessing structure internals proscribed? Without a system
call for this, though, that may be my only option, and I am willing to use
it.

BTW, I was looking for the article you mentionned and nothing jumped out;
searching the knowledgebase for BitmapRsc reveals these articles:

- copying a bitmap from an offscreen window
- using WinPaintBitmap instead of WinDrawBitmap
- Making a trigger button that greys out when there is only one item in list
- drawing a Bitmap Family Member
- Where can I find info about Palm OS API's?

Any hints? None of these articles discusses bitmap internals.

The article you want is called "OS 5 High Density Overview". It's article 341. It comes with projects called "BitmapRsrcDR1" that define "resource-only" bitmap definition with internals you can access.


On OS 5, you can't directly access the internals of a BitmapType supplied by the OS, but you can poke into those that have been serialized into data structures. That's the key thing this example provides.
