Greetings,
	I would like to be able to open a resource file (with
FSpOpenResFile or HOpenResFile) so that I can override the resources
in an application (new menus, text strings, that short of thing).  My 
problem is that I can't seem to find the correct spot such that it will
work for my menus (CMNU).  I only get the CMNU's that exist in the
application file, not the newly opened file (I've tried opening the
resource file in I<my>Application and in main...no luck).

Any ideas?
