Resource file problem

100 New Member
Hi,
I am using Microsoft Visual Studio c++ 6.0...
I want to write a resoutce file say "menu.rc" but i cant type the things like
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. IDR_PUREMFC MENU PRELOAD DISCARDABLE 
  2. BEGIN
  3.     POPUP "&File"
  4.     BEGIN
  5.         MENUITEM "Open...",     ID_FILE_OPEN
  6.         MENUITEM "&Load ",          ID_FILE_LOAD
  7.         MENUITEM "Get &Files ",      ID_FILE_GET
  8.         MENUITEM SEPARATOR
  9.         MENUITEM "E&xit",                       ID_APP_EXIT
  10.     END
  11.  
When ever i say "addResource file" It will give a folder at the top of the file "menu.rc"...And why do we use "&" (E&xit)??


THanks

why do we use "&" (E&xit)??

We use" &" sign before letter "x"........It means tat when we press "x" in keyboard...Exit is pressed.......

we can use & sign for traversing the menuitems using keyboard......
