That sort of thing is what you need to mask the image. As I said before you
cannot use the Mask or Picture properties from an out-of-process call.

The example you cite isn't C++, it's VB 6 code. It just uses a lot of Win32
API calls.

To use that code you'd need to translate it into C# or VB.NET and take
especial care with the memory management and release calls so you don't leak
handles.
