get HBITMAP from Byte array .

ok well I have created a DOB but there's something wrong with the colors...
reds show up blue and so on...
is it because I have not set up the bmiColors member of the BITMAPINFO ?
all i have are the raw bitmap image bits..no color tables.. how do I set
that up?

so far i've got:

int w, h;
unsigned int nBytes;

BYTE* bits = GetRawBitmapBits(&w, &h, &nBytes); // allocs the bit buffer and
fills it

BITMAPINFO bmi;
memset (&bmi, 0, sizeof(BITMAPINFO));

bmi.bmiHeader.biSize = sizeof(BITMAPINFO);
bmi.bmiHeader.biWidth = w;
bmi.bmiHeader.biHeight = hehight;
bmi.bmiHeader.biPlanes = 1;
bmi.bmiHeader.biBitCount = 24;
bmi.bmiHeader.biCompression = BI_RGB;
bmi.bmiHeader.biSizeImage = nBytes;

//bmi.bmiColors = ????

BYTE* dibBits = NULL;

HBITMAP hBM = CreateDIBSection( hDC, &bmi,DIB_RGB_COLORS,(void**)&dibBits,
NULL, NULL );

SetDIBits(hDC, hBM, 0, h, buff, &bmi, DIB_RGB_COLORS);    //copies my bits
into the DIB

free (bits);

return hBM

thanks!
