Handle rHandle ; handle of a valid resource in the current file

The data of the specified resource handle is written to disk (if it has been

tagged as having been changed) and the resource's resChanged attribute is

rHandle is a resource handle from the current resource file. It is a value

Returns: none (if rHandle is not from the current resource file or if the

resource is protected, ResError returns rmvResFailed).

unlocks the resource:

HNoPurge( rHandle ); [TOKEN:12074] inhibit purging */

/*... modify the handle data... */

ChangedResource( rHandle ); /* tag as changed */

if (ResError() == noErr ) { /* always check this! */

WriteResource( rHandle ); /* record changes to disk */

}

HPurge( rHandle ); [TOKEN:12074] allow purge */

Make sure you check ResError after calling ChangedResource (or
