Visual Studio Community (free) resources editor seems to work great

Time to start using it...

Quick questions

1) Can I create a .rc with visual studio ?
2) Can I double click on a .rc and open the visual studio resource editor ?

Thanks ..

Rick,

Based on what I have discovered so far:

1. You can create a new Windows desktop app which automatically includes a RC file you can edit

2. You can open any RC and edit it

Simplest way to go:

1. You create an empty RC file using notepad

2. You edit it from Visual Studio Community (file - open - select the RC file)

I try to open with Visual Studio adorick.rc and I get this error:

Code: Select all  Expand view

Thanks

Elvira,

You can add:

#define WS_CHILD 0x40000000L

or simply:

#include <windows.h>

#include <windows.h>

Is windows.H in the download section of FWH ?

Where is this file?

c:\bccxxx\include\\windows\sdk

Now the other files are missing!

[Antonio Linares]

Now the other files are missing!

I linked the above and the include from the samples dir.

That way it worked here.
