I never use it like that. I use this notation

wndclass.hbrBackground = (HBRUSH)(COLOR_WINDOW + 1);

So I dont need to include the .lib file.

These are all the colors you can use

COLOR_ACTIVEBORDER
COLOR_ACTIVECAPTION
COLOR_APPWORKSPACE
COLOR_BACKGROUND
COLOR_BTNFACE
COLOR_BTNSHADOW
COLOR_BTNTEXT
COLOR_CAPTIONTEXT
COLOR_GRAYTEXT
COLOR_HIGHLIGHT
COLOR_HIGHLIGHTTEXT
COLOR_INACTIVEBORDER
COLOR_INACTIVECAPTION
COLOR_MENU
COLOR_MENUTEXT
COLOR_SCROLLBAR
COLOR_WINDOW
COLOR_WINDOWFRAME
COLOR_WINDOWTEXT

With respect to menus I always do them by hand. Like this:

MAINMENU MENU
{
 POPUP "&File"
 {
  MENUITEM "&New\tCtrl+N",                        IDM_FILENEW
  MENUITEM "&Open\tCtrl+O",                       IDM_FILEOPEN
  MENUITEM "&Close",                              IDM_FILECLOSE
  MENUITEM SEPARATOR
  MENUITEM "&Exit\tAlt+F4",                       IDM_FILEEXIT
 }

 POPUP "&Edit"
 {
  MENUITEM "&Undo\tCtrl+Z",                       IDM_EDITUNDO
  MENUITEM SEPARATOR
  MENUITEM "Cu&t\tCtrl+X",                        IDM_EDITCUT
  MENUITEM "&Copy\tCtrl+C",                       IDM_EDITCOPY
  MENUITEM "&Paste\tCtrl+V",                      IDM_EDITPASTE
  MENUITEM "&Delete\tDel",                        IDM_EDITCLEAR
 }

 POPUP "&Help"
 {
  MENUITEM "&Help topics\tF1",                    IDHELP
 }
}
