Windows API: Getting the handle of Clarion icons

How do I use these internal icon values with an > api call like LoadImage or LoadIcon? Parse the string and get the values in the last two positions, 02, 7F is an example, Swap those two values 7F02 and use that as the parameter to LoadIcon, leave the instance number null. That will get the predefined icons and cursors used by windows, see msdn for a list. The other icons from clarion you might be able to get with the value and instance number but I have never tried.
