You always have to use GetDItem when you're playing with controls, since
Mac needs a ControlHandle -- not a resource ID.
 
GetDItem(dialog,resourceID,&dType,&dItem,&dRect);
 
From then on you use dItem as your ControlHandle.  resourceID means
nothing to any Toolbox routines except pointing to the item within the
resource.  But that can't be used directly...
