loading menus into a dialog based application

I am loading a menu into a dialog based application.
The menu loads correctly and displays as it should.
i am localising the product without precompiler directives.
I have seperate dialog's and menu's for each language.

Problem:
When i change my regional settings to a target language, the dialogs show up in the choosen language but the menu does not.

there is no view class as this is a dialog based application.

How can i connect the menu to the app so that the menu will show in the correct language?
