I wish to open a version 2 PICT file, but I do not know how to 
use the OpenPicture command.  According to Inside Mac V, OpenPicture
will correctly open a version 2 PICT file on a color mac.  I have
been able to open the PICT file with SFOpen() , and then assign
a new  PicHandle pointer to it, but this will only display version
1 PICT files.  So basically, my color PICT is reduced to 4 levels
of  gray.  

Can anyone out there show me the C code that will open a version two
PICT file with SFOpen and OpenPicture?  I would greatly appreciate it.
