WIN32 Problem!

I Finally got one of my WIN32 apps to run, now it's not popping up a messagebox when I click "New", am i missing something?

Main.cpp

Code:

#include <windows.h>
#include "resource.h"

/*  Declare Windows procedure  */
LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure (HWND, UINT, WPARAM, LPARAM);

/*  Make the class name into a global variable  */
char szClassName[ ] = "WindowsApp";

                    HINSTANCE hPrevInstance,
                    LPSTR lpszArgument,
                    int nFunsterStil)

{
    HWND hwnd;               /* This is the handle for our window */
    MSG messages;            /* Here messages to the application are saved */

    /* The Window structure */
    wincl.hInstance = hThisInstance;

    wincl.style = CS_DBLCLKS;                 /* Catch double-clicks */
    wincl.cbSize = sizeof (WNDCLASSEX);

    /* Use default icon and mouse-pointer */
    wincl.hIcon = LoadIcon (NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
    wincl.hIconSm = LoadIcon (NULL, IDI_APPLICATION);
    wincl.hCursor = LoadCursor (NULL, IDC_ARROW);
    wincl.lpszMenuName  = MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_MYMENU);
    wincl.cbClsExtra = 0;                      /* No extra bytes after the window class */
    wincl.cbWndExtra = 0;                      /* structure or the window instance */
    /* Use Windows's default color as the background of the window */
    wincl.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH) (COLOR_WINDOW+1);

    /* Register the window class, and if it fails quit the program */
    if (!RegisterClassEx (&wincl))
        return 0;

           NULL                 /* No Window Creation data */
           );

    /* Make the window visible on the screen */
    ShowWindow (hwnd, nFunsterStil);

    /* Run the message loop. It will run until GetMessage() returns 0 */
    while (GetMessage (&messages, NULL, 0, 0))
    {
        /* Translate virtual-key messages into character messages */
        TranslateMessage(&messages);
        /* Send message to WindowProcedure */
        DispatchMessage(&messages);
    }

    /* The program return-value is 0 - The value that PostQuitMessage() gave */
    return messages.wParam;
}


/*  This function is called by the Windows function DispatchMessage()  */

LRESULT CALLBACK WindowProcedure (HWND hwnd, UINT message, WPARAM wParam, LPARAM lParam)
{    
    switch (message)                  /* handle the messages */
    {   
        case WM_COMMAND:
             {
               case ID_FILE_EXIT:

               break;
               case ID_FILE_NEW:
               MessageBox (NULL, "Sorry, this function is currently unavailable." 
               ,"Unavailable", MB_OK);
               break;
               }    
        case WM_DESTROY:

            break;
        default:                      /* for messages that we don't deal with */
            return DefWindowProc (hwnd, message, wParam, lParam);
     }
    return 0;
}

resource file:

Code:

#include "resource.h"

IDR_MYMENU MENU
BEGIN
    POPUP "File"
    BEGIN
        MENUITEM "New", ID_FILE_NEW
    
        MENUITEM "Exit", ID_FILE_EXIT
    END

    POPUP "Edit"
    BEGIN
        MENUITEM "Edit",0
        MENUITEM "Copy",0
        MENUITEM "Paste",0   
    END
END

resource.h:

Code:

#define IDR_MYMENU 101

#define ID_FILE_NEW 9001
#define ID_FILE_EXIT 9002

please help!!!

Its because your are not checking the LOWORD of the wParam. You are going to have to check that by doing this.

Code:

switch(LOWORD(wParam))
{    
    case ID_FILE_EXIT:
        PostQuitMessage(0);
        break;
    case ID_FILE_NEW:
        MessageBox (NULL, "Sorry, this function is currently unavailable.",
                    "Unavailable", MB_OK);
        break;
}
