Hm. Not on mine. The menuID has a little text box of its own in the window,
which you must alter (and then click "Do it!" or hit return).
Also, it seems from the above that you think the menuID should be the same
as it's resource ID. This is not necessarily true, and while it may be good
programming practice, it doesn't start out that way.

Also, you can always get the template-driven menu editor by choosing
"Open As..." and using Type "MENU".
