Create a mask file for the .BMP -
Modify the BMP
Save As the same name with an .MSK extension in the same directory - don't close it yet. As long as the BMP has an MSK with the same name in the same location, VFP will use that to mask the file.
Whereever you don't want the white to show, make it black. I usually just set the whole thing to black.
Save it.
You may need to restart VFP to see the change take effect.
