	After we moved to V12 we had problems getting bitmaps. We had to create a CXTPImageManagerIconHandle and call CopyHandle. The input was the CXTPImageManagerIconHandle CXTPImageManagerIconHandle IconCopy; IconCopy.CopyHandle(IconHandle); We could then get the HBITMAP. However, with png files, the returned bitmap was rendered with a black background and I could not find a way to control that. So we then used the CXTPImageManagerIconHandle and createded a compatible DC and drew into the DC. It went something like this: CDC pDCSrc = GetDC(); if(pDCSrc) { HDC hDCMem = CreateCompatibleDC( NULL ); HBITMAP hBmpOld = 0; HBRUSH hBrush = CreateSolidBrush( Background ); // create a bitmap that will be used after the // icon is drawn hbm = CreateCompatibleBitmap( pDCSrc->m_hDC, nWidth, nWidth ); hBmpOld = (HBITMAP)SelectObject( hDCMem, hbm ); CPoint pt; pt.x = pt.y = 0; HBRUSH hBrushOld = (HBRUSH)SelectObject( hDCMem, hBrush ); HPEN hPenOld = (HPEN)SelectObject(hDCMem,GetStockObject(NULL_PEN)); Rectangle( hDCMem, 0, 0, nWidth+1, nWidth+1 ); CSize szIcon; szIcon.cx = szIcon.cy = nWidth; bool bDrawComposited = false; CDC tmpDC; tmpDC = CDC::FromHandle( hDCMem ); IconHandle.Draw( tmpDC, pt, szIcon, bDrawComposited ); SelectObject( hDCMem, hBrushOld ); SelectObject( hDCMem, hPenOld ); SelectObject( hDCMem, hBmpOld ); DeleteObject( hBrush ); DeleteDC( hDCMem ); DeleteDC( pDCSrc->m_hDC);
