MainNameField == Resource ID of the field (the ID # assigned in your
resource editor) Look in your resource header file generated by the
resource editor for the ones available to your app.
Yes, it is possible to use the same handler for every form. The big
drawback is working with the resource IDs. The label/IDs will be different
for each form. You may be better off writing individual handlers for each
form but common routines to handle common messages. If you plan to use the
same menu for multiple forms, you could use the same menu handler. I've
done it in the past without too many hassles.
