Convert this function to load from Resource rather than File

[Ali Imran]

Hello gurus,

You can see following function (I got from codeproject as far I remember), loads from an external file. What I want is have same fucntion load from resources, I pass it resource ID as DWORD and it simply loads from resources not an external file. something like
HBITMAP LoadImageResource(DWORD resID);


I am sure for winapi gurus it is task of a few minutes. Any help is apprecited.

Please, it is urgent:

HBITMAP LoadImageFile(char *FileName)  {
   // Use IPicture stuff to use JPG / GIF / BMP files
   IPicture* p;
   IStream* s;
   IPersistStream* ps;
   HGLOBAL hG;
   void* pp;
   FILE* fp;


   // Read file in memory
   fp = fopen(FileName,"rb");
   if (!fp)
	  return NULL;
	

   fseek(fp,0,SEEK_END);
   
   int fs = ftell(fp); //get filesize
   fseek(fp,0,SEEK_SET);
   hG = GlobalAlloc(GPTR,fs);
   if (!hG)  {
      fclose(fp);
      return NULL;
   }


      
   pp = (void*)hG;
   fread(pp,1,fs,fp);
   fclose(fp);
	

   // Create an IStream so IPicture can
    CreateStreamOnHGlobal(hG,false,&s);
   if (!s) {
      GlobalFree(hG);
      return NULL;
   }


   OleLoadPicture(s,0,false,IID_IPicture,(void**)&p);

   if (!p) {
      s->Release();
      GlobalFree(hG);
      return NULL;
   }
   s->Release();
   GlobalFree(hG);

   HBITMAP hB = 0;
   p->get_Handle((unsigned int*)&hB);

   // Copy the image. Necessary, because upon p's release,
   // the handle is destroyed.
   HBITMAP hBB = (HBITMAP)CopyImage(hB,IMAGE_BITMAP,0,0,LR_COPYRETURNORG);

   p->Release();
   return hBB;
}

I do not want to use LoadBitmap or LoadImage in this regard, please. If possible, I want exactly same function but reading resources not external file.

waiting for kind quick reply.
