I want to use the OpenPicture feature of Quickdraw to copy a BitMap
into a Picture, and the copy the Picture to the desk scrap, so I 
can paste it into MacPaint. 

According to the manual, once you have done an OpenPicture, all QuickDraw
commands will be recorded in the Picture. But how about bitmaps? I don't
think doing CopyBits gets recorded in the Picture, but I can't tell
from the docs in Inside Mac I. 

Can anyone tell me how you normally get bit images into Pictures?

Thanks,
	Henry
