Hie everybody....
I want to use masm32 to build an application , I need to use resources files.....
There is no help for using the resources compiler of masm32.
Opening exemples files found some strings in the .rc file like that :
.....ICON MOVEABLE PURE LOADONCALL ......
WHERE CAN I FIND THE DESCRIPTION OF ALL THIS STRINGS AND PARAMETERS ???????????
warfull,
Welcome on board, the trick is to get yourself a resource editor and learn how to use it. Go to the forum website on this link to find a couple to play with.

No need to shout in here, we all read normal text fine.
There is a help file in masm package, funnily named "RC.HLP" :bdg
On the subject of "moveable pure loadoncall blah blah blah" -- ignore them, don't use them. They're largely only there for compatibility; the defaults are perfectly fine (ie. none)
So for an icon, you would just use: 100 ICON "myicon.ico"
and for a menu: 200 MENU { ................. }
etc
For some reason the RC.hlp file is located in the masm32\bin folder instead of the masm32\help folder. I have often wondered why this is so.
