HELP with resource script

[AveFenix]

I added the resource script (RC file= to the DEV C++ Project files.
The project compiles OK, but FindResource cannot find the resource.
The resource file is OK, the resource type is IMA and the resource name is
IMA_1. (DEV C++ 5, W Vista Home Ed)

I guess the resource script is not getting compiled at all.
I would prefer to add a .RES file to the Dev C++ Project.
How can do that?

Thanks in advance.

include <iostream>

include <stdlib.h>

include <windows.h>

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
HRSRC hRsrc;
HGLOBAL hResource;
DWORD dwSize;
int hfFile;

hRsrc = FindResource(NULL, TEXT("IMA_1"),TEXT("IMA"));

if (hRsrc)
{
hResource = LoadResource(NULL, hRsrc);
dwSize = SizeofResource(NULL, hRsrc);

 char *pdata = (char *)LockResource(hResource);

 hfFile = _lopen("image.jpg",OF_WRITE);
 _lwrite(hfFile, pdata, dwSize);
 _lclose(hfFile);

}
else
cout << "Failure";

return 0;
