    I have a program installed where I need to change one of the toolbar images. All I have is the executable, I believe it is possible to extract resources from an executable but is it possible to modify these resources (in the case of the tool bar bmp). Regards, SAK

      You can open the executable with Visual C++, select open as resources, and then edit the toolbar bitmaps. I just tried it. :)

          If you're looking for a tool for the job, ResourceHacker is probably the best one out there. Regards, Alvaro
