That looks wrong.  You are using the previously #defined integer value as 
the name of the resource.  I don't have a whole lot of experience with 
resources, but in my RC files, the same thing might look like:

// define a name for the 'working' cursor
CURSOR_WORKING ANICURSOR "Abe.ani"

Then in my code:

LoadCursor( (void *)Hinstance, "CURSOR_WORKING" );

or:

FindResource( (void *)HInstance, "CURSOR_WORKING", RT_ANICURSOR );

Note that I don't have to use MAKEINTRESOURCE (the point of which I've never 
understood anyway!).
