AutoCAD and background image

    Hi,

    We are looking to integrate imagery as a backdrop to views in Autocad. The imagery covering a view at the required resolution is loaded into memory by a special DLL. How can the imagery be attached as a background to a view. The method of creating a temporary TIF file and then attaching it can be used(-image command), but this is limiting. Is there another method ? Maybe another library or DLL or something by Autodesk to directly write the image such that it is displayed?
    If anyone has any info, please help !

    look into OLE objects, you can use lisp to create them
