LoadString problems

[James Hawkins]

Hey,

I'm trying to load strings from the hhctrl.ocx resource file to use as
the text for tabs and toolbar buttons, but I can't get it to work. 
I've tried to get LoadString to work a couple ways, but it just won't
work for me.  I've attached the resource files and Makefile.in. Maybe
something is wrong with the way those are set up.  The following code
is one of the (failing) places where I call LoadString:

TCITEMA tie;
   char text[MAX_PATH];

LoadStringA(NULL, IDS_CONTENTS, text, MAX_PATH);
   /* text should be '&Contents', but we get a GetLastError() */

tie.mask = TCIF_TEXT;
   tie.pszText = text;

TabCtrl_InsertItemA(hwndTabCtrl, dwIndex, &tie);

I should note that the code works when compiled with Visual Studio and
run on Windows.
