   I had a similar problem which was fixed by:

      1).  Never using windows.h as the include for the RC files.
           (use style.h instead)
      2).  Splitting the RC file into 2 or more parts and CATing them
           together like:
               RC -R RC1.RC
               RC -R RC2.RC
               COPY RC1.RES/B + RC2.RES/B RC3.RES/B

    Hope this helps!
