I have the resources

Code:
RESOURCE DIALOG r_dlg {
 flags = ...
 buttons = r_btns;
 form = r_form;
}

RESOURCE CBA r_btns {
 buttons = {
   CBA_BUTTON {
     id = EAknSoftkeyOptions;
     txt = "Alternativ";
   },
   CBA_BUTTON {
     id = EAknSoftkeyExit;
     txt = "Avsluta";
   }
 };
}

RESOURCE FORM r_form {
 flags = ...
 items = {
   DLG_LINE {
     type = EEikCtEdwin;
     prompt = "Förnamn";
     id = ESomeId;
     control = EDWIN {
       ...
     };
   }, ...
 }
}

Now, I want to add menu items to the Options menu with Edit as a menu choice (which automatically comes from EAknSoftkeyOptions). I then try to do this dynamically in the DynInitMenuPaneL function, like this:

Code:
void CMyForm::DynInitMenuPaneL(TInt aResourceId, CEikMenuPane* aMenuPane)
{
 CAknForm::DynInitMenuPaneL(aResourceId, aMenuPane);

 if (aResourceId == 147587078)  //I have no idea where this number is defined. Anyone....??
   CEikMenuPaneItem::SData mpi;
   mpi.iCommandId = E1;
   mpi.iText.Copy(_L("Hej"));
   aMenuPane->AddMenuItemL(mpi);
 }
}

I thought that this code would only enter the if statement once (which it also does) but instead of getting one more menu choice "Hej", I get a menu choice "Hej" with a submenu arrow to a submenu that does not exist! There is a panic (CONE 14 - resource not found) when I try to go to the submenu. What has happened here?Huh??

dynamically adding menu items
How about if you but those items in resource and dim those items which you don't need in DynInitMenuPaneL(...)
