What does "But it doesn't work at all..." mean exactly?

Here are a couple of article on how to draw a PNG with transparency.

I've been trying to draw a PNG on a Button for a long time without any
luck.

There is no documentation, Tutorial, Post or any kind of information abut
how to draw a Transparent PNG image on a CButton or CBitmapButton.

So, I really need some help on how to do it.

I tried:

----------------------------------------------Code-----------------------------------

void MyButton::DrawItem(LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT lpDrawItemStruct)
{

   // TODO: Add your code to draw the specified item
   CDC dc;
   dc.Attach(lpDrawItemStruct->hDC);
   CRect rt;
   rt = lpDrawItemStruct->rcItem;

   Graphics grpx(dc);

       Rect rect(50,20,100,100); //Size and Pos of the Image

       Image * Img = Image::FromFile(L"C:\\Img.png",FALSE);//Image
Destination

       grpx.DrawImage(Img,rect);//Draw The PNG on the Button

   dc.SetTextColor(RGB(0,0,255));

   CString Temp;
   GetWindowText(Temp);

   dc.DrawText(Temp,rt,DT_CENTER|DT_VCENTER|DT_SINGLELINE);

   dc.Detach();
}

----------------------------------------End of
Code-------------------------------------------------------

But it doesn't work at all...

This will Improve my GUIs dramatically.
