Hello there,

For that particular function you need to check your types in the
function link as well as note the following:

hi (very first parameter of this function)

Handle to the instance that contains the resource. 
If the hi parameter is zero, the low-order word of this parameter must 
be the identifier of the OEM image to load. The OEM image identifiers 
are defined in WINUSER.H. Following are the identifier prefixes and 
their meanings:

Prefix	Meaning
OBM_	OEM bitmaps
OIC_	OEM icons
OCR_	OEM cursors

Take care,
Al
