How can I to copy an existing bitmap (#103, for example) into my dialog created inside the isres.dll?
The dialog created by copying an existing one from the isres\dialog folder in the resource pane in the Visual C++ 6.0 of this dll dsw. The source dialog encludes the bitmap, but the copied one doesn't it...

I'm not entirely sure what your question is.  Do you want to modify the standard bitmap (#103) for the SdWelcome() and SdFinishXXX() dialogs?

If you just need to modify existing dialogs, just open up _isres.dll as a "resource" in MSVC.  Select "bitmaps".  Using the menu items, copy and paste into your _isuser.dll project.  Edit as appropriate.  If you have already copied the dialog you want, the process is the same as that.

I actually had to copy the dialog properties to a new bitmap resource, and created the bitmap in a real bitmap editor.  MSVC seems to have a bug where it will paste the image with reduced bit-depth, resulting in a badly dithered image.
