Summary: The types of resources bound to a Windows application are not limited to those types defined in the Windows SDK; you can define your own type of resource. One way this can be done is described on Page 32 of the “Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit Programming Tools” manual Version 2.10. Using this technique, you can include information stored in another file in the executable. There is an example in the Software Library of how to implement user-defined resources. This file can be found in the Software Library by searching on the filename MYRES.ARC, the Q number of this article, or S12223.
