I'm using a bit of code in THINK C 4.0.5 to try and set up a menu bar.
I am initialising all the right stuff, and I can get a couple of windows
displayed. BUT, when the menu initialisation code is run, I get a system
error.
I got the debugger out, and stepping thru, it stopped on line 'x' (in the
listing below), and said "odd address". I know what this means, but I want
to know why... 
BTW: I have set up the correct resource info for MBAR and MENU types.

The code seg follows:

void MenuBarInit()
{
	Handle	myMenuBar;
		
	myMenuBar=GetNewMBar(BASE_RES_ID);   /* 'line x' */
	SetMenuBar(myMenuBar);
	gAppleMenu=GetMHandle(APPLE_MENU_ID);
	gFileMenu=GetMHandle(FILE_MENU_ID);
	gEditMenu=GetMHandle(EDIT_MENU_ID);
	DrawMenuBar();
}

BASE_RES_ID is set to 1000, the# of the MBAR resource. The rsrc is set up
correctly as well...


Any ideas??????
