It was only intended as a test, think the problem was with the HINSTANCE and
HWND, although haven't had time to test yet, but I do take on board the
prossibilty of resource items having the same ID.

Grandted, the IDE does auto create the resource file but I edited the
.bpr.xml file and altered the <RESFILES value="app_resource.res"/> tag,
doesn;t seem to cause a problem.  I removed it originally because the
resources were becoming corrupted when RLINK stuck together the auto
generated resource and my own resource.

Thanks anyway, will test not.
