Subject: rsrc_load and drop-down menus

Hello again folks.
I have some questions about setting up windows using the AES.
     1) Is it possible to get the Resource Construction Set  by Digital
          Research without buying the Development kit?

     2) I tried doing an dummy=rsrc_load(filn);
            where filn points to the string "logo.rsc" terminated by 2
            zero bytes.  (I should only need one I think, but I put 2
            just to make sure) Dummy ends up being 0 after the call,
            indicating (according to the ABACUS GEM programming
            reference guide) that an error occured.
            I guessed that there is some problem in opening the
            file because the error occured during the first and only
            buzz of the disk drive.(I believe the first buzz is always
            a directory check for opening files)  I checked to make
            sure that I had in fact placed the logo.rsc file on the
            disk that I had in drive A and I checked to make sure that
            I spelled it right.  I don't know what to do now.  HELP!

Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!!
Sincerely,
Alan M. Levi
