Open an image in DirectX9

[sunilnair]

Hi, I am working on Visual studio wherein I have a cube and a sphere and I am able to set material properties to them. I want to open an image in this world.

The image should not be a texture wrapped around the cube. The image should be new object which I can touch as a surface with my cursor. How should I do this.

draw a plane with a texture on it.
