1. Are you sure the bitmap IDB_BITMAP1 is really included in your .exe? (try to load the .exe as a resource in VS and proof it).
2. Did you try to use LoadImage instead?
3. What does the GetLastError return if the loading fails?

1. "the HRESULT was 0" (S_OK) means the function completed successfully.
2. "(there is not documentation on CBitmap::Attach)". However, there is a documentation on its base class method: CGdiObject Class | Microsoft Docs
