I would like to have an icon in a finder menu. I know that it can be done using ResEdit. The problem is that I put in the icon resource number(the icon resides in the finder) in the menu's resource, but the icon never appears in the menu. Instead I get a blank spot where it should be. Thank you. -- Mahboud Zabetian buzz@phoenix.princeton.edu 183 Little Hall (609) 520-1270 Princeton University, Princeton, NJ 08544 (609) 734-7760 ****** Anyone need a soon-to-graduate hardware/software engineer? ********

You should put the resource number minus 256 into the menu's resource. Therefore the icon must be numbered from 257 to 511. BTW, make sure the icon is of type 'ICON' not 'ICN#'.
