The IMAGE procedure places a graphic image on the current window or report at the position and size specified by its x, y, width, and height parameters. This may be a bitmap (.BMP), icon (.ICO), PaintBrush (.PCX), Graphic Interchange Format (.GIF), JPEG (.JPG), or Windows metafile (.WMF). This procedure is valid in Clarion Win32 Windows, and also for REPORT structures in both Clarion Win32 and Clarion#.

Example:

MDIChild WINDOW('Child One'),AT(0,0,320,200),MDI,MAX,HVSCROLL

!window controls

END

CODE

OPEN(MDIChild)
