Resource view with converted project
-
1. I created a project with VC6. Now I opened it with VC8, which converted the project. However, the resource tab is empty. The resource file is there, the program is running, but I don't see the resources (and can't edit them). 2. How does one start the dialog editor in VC8? The help is crap; it contains everything about the dialog editor but not how to start it. Thanks

Silly question: Have you the Express Edition of VC8? (Express Edition has NO resource editor). :)

Did you get any message or warning?

1. No, it is not the Express. It is the full professional version. 2. I do not receive any error message. Even more strange: I started a new project in order to test this issue. It is the simple dialog with the default buttons, I have not done anything yet. The dialog editor has been started automatically, and it works as supposed to - however, the resource tab is still empty in the new project as well. I added a bitmap resource; I could edit it, but after having closed it, the recource tab is still empty. Moreover, the class view tab too is empty, both in the converted and in the new project.
