If you're using named resources from the Resources dialog, then you want to use the Resource function, not CreateResource.
There are basically two ways to bring external resources into your composition: with named resources, and with the CreateResource function. If you're using a named resource, where the status shows up in the Resources dialog, then you want to use the Resource function instead of CreateResource. The resource name does not have to match the file name, and the search path does not come into play, because you specify the full path to the file in the Resource dialog. Also, named resources will be collected, so you want to use this method if you're uploading jobs to FusionPro Web. Named resources also show up in the Switch Wizard and Drag-and-Drop Rule Wizard editors. If you use the CreateResource function, then you are accessing the graphic by file name. They don't need to be added in the Resources dialog, and the search path does indeed come into play, although you can specify a full or partial relative path in the function call as in David's example.
