MAKEINTRESOURCE

[six_L]

MAKEINTRESOURCE

This macro converts an integer value to a resource type compatible with Windows resource-management functions. This macro is used in place of a string containing the name of the resource.

LPTSTR MAKEINTRESOURCE(
  WORD wInteger;
);

Parameters

wInteger
    Specifies the integer value to be converted.

Return Values

The return value is the specified value in the low-order word and zero in the high-order word.
Remarks

The return value should be passed only to the Microsoft® Win32® resource-management functions, as the lpType parameter.

The MAKEINTRESOURCE macro is defined as follows.

#define MAKEINTRESOURCE(i)  (LPTSTR) ((DWORD) ((WORD) (i)))

how do translate the macros into asm?

[u]

In the end, it's all a DWORD  :bdg
That C++ definition is just to trick the C++ compiler.
The OS will recognize if the passed parameter is an ID or a string simply by checking if the value is >65535. In the OS, it's basically forbidden to have memory, allocated in the first virtual 64kB (and quite a bit more). So, any pointer will be >>65535.

and how convert IDI_ICONATERISK to MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ICONASTERISK)  ?

STRING db 4 dup (?)

mov dword ptr [STRING+3], IDI_ICONASTERISK

How Use here resourses from system32\shell32.dll?
