  BOOL CreateBitmapIndirect( LPBITMAP lpBitmap );
 
  Parameter   Description
 
  <lpBitmap>  Points to a BITMAP structure that contains information about
              the bitmap.
 
  Remarks
 
  Initializes a bitmap that has the width, height, and bit pattern (if one
  is specified) given in the structure pointed to by <lpBitmap>. Although
  a bitmap cannot be directly selected for a display device, it can be
  selected as the current bitmap for a memory device context by using
  ◄CDC::SelectObject► or ◄CMetaFileDC::SelectObject► and copied to any
  compatible device context by using the ◄CDC::BitBlt► function.
 
  When an application has finished using the bitmap initialized by
  CreateBitmapIndirect, it should select the bitmap out of the device
  context.
 
  Return Value
 
  TRUE if successful; otherwise FALSE.
