Mike the problem that you are having is the following you load the first bmp VFP uses that bmp pallet if you have SET PALLET OFF now take an example that pallet on position 2 have a blue color, now you show a second BMP that has a different pallet e.g. on position 2 have a green color what you will see is that instead of green the blue is being displayed. This is very common if you are showing photo images is this your case?
Also are you showing more than 1 BMP at the same time?
