Tried to install it already, but this is for office 2010, and it does not allow me to install it unless I remove all of the office 2007 first... and we don't even have office 2010....

What I thought with DIBSection what just transparent blting it only to my existing GDI DC (not GDI+).

This is an existing product written in C++ and Win32, and we do not plan for now to convert all of it, just to refresh this small part that is doing this pixel drawing.

I though that just turning pixels on & off would be something simple, but I guess it's not.
I'm sure I will have to experiment with the subject, I was just wondering if you (or anybody else) had experience with this kind of fun...

The graphics we need to create are at the pixel level, this is why DirectDraw was sucha good solution a while back. From what I see around Direct2D is rather new, and there are not too many resources, samples and tutorials, and I'm afraid that microsoft for pull the plug on it, as they did with DirectDraw.
When I'm talking about DIB, I was just thinking of creating a bitmap, (DIB) fill it with my pixels in a background thread, and then blting it - it's not a technology, but a technique...
