I am trying to make a card game and I can't seem to figure out how to make random bitmaps appear. Any ideas?
 
By random bitmaps, i assume that you have 52 pre-defined bitmaps? If so, you can

1. make an array of cbitmaps
2. Generate a random number between 0 and 51
3. Load that bitmap

CBitmap::LoadBitmap(RESOURCE_ID) should work fine

Or you can load the bitmap into a picture control if the cards are in a fixed position.

Hmm. That seems so simple lol. Thanks I will go for the array thing, I shouldn't be fixing games of 21 just yet...
