    Does anybody know some free resurce (.rc) editor which is able to edit the dialogs ? Moving/resizing the existing windows/changing text is all what I need. I just want designer to correct dialogs without need to buy him expensive visual studio and learn him how to use it without destroying sources and other things in the project. Thanks !

      It's not WYSIWYG but you could always use Notepad. Back in the early 90s, this is how I created and modified resource files before I started using Borland's Resource Workshop.

        :) unfortunately the designer have no clue about programming and now it's annoying for me to move controls by few pixels as he wants

          Did you consider 'Resource Hacker' ? You can directly extract, modify and compile resources using it. Nice and pretty sophisticated tool. Not exactly what you want - but should serve your purpose - without even giving out the source :-D

              Thank you, but both the programs can edit only compiled resources or .exe, I need to edit resources source (*.rc) :)
