I assume you mean 32767, not 32765...
Applications can use resource IDs from 1 through 9999. Zero is best avoided
because it's often used to mean "nothing". 10000 through 32767 are reserved
for system use. 32768 through 65535 (or -1 through -32768 if you prefer to
think of it that way) are not supported by the tools.
Most applications use 1000-1099 for the first form, 1100-1199 for the
second, etc. Note that you can use the same resource ID for different types
of resources without conflict. So the first form, the first string, the
first alert, the first bitmap, etc could be (and usually are) all numbered
1000.
