No, you misunderstand. Symbolic IDs *are* allowed, but the symbols must be
in the global .constDir. Since your program did not initialize the global
.constDir, IDR_PRODUCT_VIEW_MENU could not be resolved, and therefore is not
a *valid* symbolic ID. (It is of course a symbolic ID, just not valid in
this context.)
Look at the ScriptMenuBar.rex example program to get an idea of how this
works. You will see at the start of the program:
.application~useGlobalConstDir("O", "ScriptMenuBar.h")
You just need something similar in your program to use symbolic IDs with
menu objects.
