                      TPopup problem..
Hi,
 
I have a problem with getting MA3.0 to make popupmenus.
 
At first I had only one Popupmenu in a dialog. The popup got its first three
items from a CMNU resource, and the rest of the items was updated at runtime.
The Popup is by the way a list of layers in a CAD program, and the first items
were ( All layers, No Layers, separator line).
All items in the CMNU had command number 0.
This worked fine.
 
Later I tried to make an equivalent Popup menu to keep a list of systems in
the CAD program, and installed this into the same dialog.
I then got a Failure in TPopup.CreateCMgrControl, during viewcreation. The
defproc does NOT make its datastructure..
 
   // Need to signal failure if the CDEF's private storage couldn't be created
-- this is
   // most likely due to a missing MENU or CMNU resource with fMenuID.
   FailNIL((*aCMgrControl)->contrlData);
 
I have checked the resource map and the CMNU exists with the correct ID= 130.
Could someone give me a clue to what is wrong here?? It seems like the error
occurs when I have got more than one popup in the dialog.
 
Regards
