Hi Mark,

>does GDIPlusX work with VFP8?

you probably have to get rid of the TRY CATCH stuff inside the library. For CTOBIN() and BINTOC() you can use the following functions:

*====================================================================
* Converts a 32-bit integer variable (LONG) into a binary string.
*====================================================================
Procedure APILongToChar
LParameter tnLong

	Local lcString
	lcString = Space(4)
	Declare RtlMoveMemory in Win32API as __LongToChar ;
		String@, Long@, Integer
	__LongToChar( @lcString, @tnLong, 4 )
	
Return m.lcString

*====================================================================
* Converts a binary string into a 32-bit unsigned integer.
*====================================================================
Procedure APICharToLong
LParameter tcString

	Local lnLong
	lnLong = 0
	Declare RtlMoveMemory in Win32API as __CharToLong ;
		Long@, String@, Integer
	__CharToLong( @lnLong, @tcString, 4 )
	If m.lnLong < 0
		lnLong = m.lnLong + 2^32
	Endif
	
Return m.lnLong
