Hmmm... My memory is slipping as to what my first post said exactly, but
here is the situation now.  I do use GpiSetBitmapBits to write to my 
bitmap, but the problem is this function only works with bitmaps associated
with a memory device context.  This leads to: 
   I want to work with a 640x480 bitmap.  I have a buffer in memory which
holds this info (8 bit format, so 307,200 bytes).  Then I have a 640x480
bitmap which I can use GpiSetBitmapBits to write to (another 307,200+ bytes).
Then I can copy this bitmap to the PS during the WM_PAINT message.  Of
course I haven't figured out the palette manager completely yet, so it
remaps colors when I write my buffer to the bitmap.  Therefore I can't 
read bits from the bitmap and make sense out of them, `cause they've all
been remapped.

Bummer.
