'Description: Hi! I wrote this a little while ago, 
'it's a PCX decoder for VB. It works with 8 Bit and 
'24 Bit images. I programmed this module a while ago, 
'as I needed to load PCX screenshots into the Mame 
'frontend that i'm writing (http://emuhq.com/calliope).
 
'The 8 bit decoder is quite fast, since it doesn't have 
'to decode to a temporary array before sorting the data.
'It uses the API to create a bitmap, and OLE to create a 
'StdPicture object.
 
'To load a PCX image, just use the syntax:
 
'Set myPictureObject = LoadPcx(MyFileName)
 
'I've tested it on lots of images, and it works quite well.
'Hopefully you can post this on VBExplorer, and other people 
'can learn or use the code.
 
Thanks for a great site!
