creating a valid bmp in Paint for Euphoria

Hi,

I'm having trouble with read_bitmap. According to the euphoria docs you can
create a bitmap in Paint and read it with read_bitmap. However everytime I
do that I get an "Unsupported Format" return code error. The bitmap always
gets created in Paint as 32X32X24BPP. Read_bitmap supports 2, 4, 16 and 256
colors. What can I do?

I want to eventually get this bmp into XPM format for my Toolbars.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Judith Evans
