This is very fustrating...  Please help me!

Here's the problem...

I am making tiles in Adobe Photo Shop 5.0.  These tiles are stored as 24 bit
BMP files.  Yet, when I try to make a .dat file with the grabber that comes
with Allegro 3.0, it always crashes when I try to read in the BMP's.  Oddly
enough, the BMP files that came with windows as screen backgrounds and
screen tiles all work just fine.  I must be doing something incorrectly, but
what?

Any suggestions on how I might be able to fix this problem?  I'd really
appriciate any help you have to offer.  Thank you!
