Win32 API CreateWindowW конфликтует с созданием меню

Я пытаюсь добавить некоторые элементы управления приложением в свой код Windows API (Примечание: я использую Visual Studio). У меня возникла проблема, когда я пытаюсь добавить функцию CreateWindowW(), которая генерирует текст и поле («статическое» и "редактировать") и меню одновременно. Меню прекрасно работает само по себе ("Расчеты"):

Однако добавление функции CreateWindow() «полностью стирает» меню, но дает выходные данные CreateWindowW() (также немного мерцающие):

Код, который у меня есть сейчас, таков (функция меню и функции CreateWindowW() находятся внизу):

#define MAX_LOADSTRING 100
#define FILE_MENU_DESTROY 1
#define FILE_MENU_ABOUT 2

// Global Variables:
HINSTANCE hInst;                                // current instance
WCHAR szTitle[MAX_LOADSTRING];                  // The title bar text
WCHAR szWindowClass[MAX_LOADSTRING];            // the main window class name

// Forward declarations of functions included in this code module:
