Draw won't Draw

I have the following code in a FormCreate procedure but when I run it none
of my BitMaps appear on the screen. The LoadFromResourceID method raises an
EAccessViolation error. I have used this code before with someone else's
.res file and it has worked. What am I doing wrong?

for count := 1 to 5 do
begin
die[count] := TPicture.Create;
PicName := 'BitMap'+ IntToStr(count);
die[count].BitMap.LoadFromResourceName(HInstance, PicName);
Form1.Canvas.Draw(56, 78 * count, die[count].Graphic);
end;

Thanks in advance

Re:Draw won't Draw

Try to use loadfromresourceID and order your bitmaps bij number.
