API to display image on a window

[visharad]

I have the handle of a window. I also have the name(with path) of a file, which contains an image.
I want to use API(s) to display that image in that window. The image should resize so that it covers whole of the window.

How do I do this? Thanks.

What type of image is it?

If its a BMP image you can just use Win32 to display it.

You can guess it's a win32 FAQ for ages
