Borland C++ 5 Popup menu

Lo I want to create a popup menu on left click I got the left click I also got the hmenu defined my problem is with the getsubmenu wich returns NULL

Here is the initialisation code:

Code:

  switch (iMsg) {
    case WM_CREATE :
    		SetInternational();
         hMenu = LoadMenu (hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(MENU_1) );
//         if (LoadMenu (hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(MENU_1)) == NULL) { MessageBox (hwnd, "Doet het niet :(", szAppName, MB_ICONINFORMATION | MB_OK); }
         hMenu = GetSubMenu(hMenu, 0);
         if (GetSubMenu(hMenu, 0) == NULL) { MessageBox (hwnd, "It doesn't work :(", szAppName, MB_ICONINFORMATION | MB_OK); }
         return 0  switch (iMsg) {
    case WM_CREATE :
    		SetInternational();
         hMenu = LoadMenu (hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(MENU_1) );
//         if (LoadMenu (hInst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(MENU_1)) == NULL) { MessageBox (hwnd, "It doesn't work :(", szAppName, MB_ICONINFORMATION | MB_OK); }
         hMenu = GetSubMenu(hMenu, 0);
         if (GetSubMenu(hMenu, 0) == NULL) { MessageBox (hwnd, "It doesn't work:(", szAppName, MB_ICONINFORMATION | MB_OK); }
         return 0;

My problem is the second if It returns NULL instead of the menu handler... Any takers?

Using (like I said) Borland 5.0

This may be a dumb thing to ask, but exactly how deep is your popup menu from the main menu? The reason I'm asking is because I see that you're calling GetSubMenu twice (which means you're trying to access a third level menu). Also, after this line:
hMenu = GetSubMenu(hMenu, 0);

Can you confirm that hMenu is not null at this point?
