HOw can I create a bmp file using vb6?

easy way: set the AutoRedraw propriety of a PictureBox to True, draw you graphics and then use the SavePicture method

hard way: include in the project the definition of the bitmap file standard headers using the APIViewer, save them and the image data (array of Byte) in a file open in Binary mode.

Let me know if you need more details
