I've tried to make a resource file whith scripting
rc-files because its more powerful than the Borland Image
Editor and you are not limited to 256 colors.

the problem is: I cant get it to work!
it compiles fine, but when I try to load
a image from resource I get this error:

Project Project1.exe raised exception class EAccessViolation with message
'Access violation at adress 4130CD8E
in module 'VCL.BPL'. Read of adress FFFFFFFF'. Process stopped. Use Step or
Run to continue.

I use Borland C++ Builder 3.0 Standard

this is how I coded:

File://--------------------------------
Unit1.cpp ----------------------------
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
#include <vcl.h>
#pragma hdrstop

#include "Unit1.h"
#include "xtraimages.rh"
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
#pragma package(smart_init)
#pragma resource "*.dfm"
TForm1 *Form1;
//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
__fastcall TForm1::TForm1(TComponent* Owner)
    : TForm(Owner)
{

//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-

void __fastcall TForm1::BitBtn1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
Image1->Picture->Bitmap->LoadFromResourceID((int)HInstance,ID_TEST);

//--------------------------------------------------------------------------
-

File://-------------------------xtraimages.rc----------------------
#include "xtraimages.rh"

ID_TEST          BITMAP "close.bmp"

File://-----------------------xtraimages.rh------------------------
#ifndef XTRAIMAGES_RH
#define XTRAIMAGES_RH

#define ID_TEST             1000
#endif

I just cant figure out whats wrong. Please help, any help
highly apreciated.

Be sure that you have USERES instead of PRAGMA RESOURCE in your source since
sometimes it doesn't work.
