need single header for multiple resource files

[jim456]

I am creating a resource only dll,by pulling out resources from existing application and having seperate .rcs for strings,menus,etc. There seems to be one issue I need a common header for all the .rcs..:| As of now,each .rc file i.e Strings.rc,Menus.rc etc have a seperate symbol header file like Menus.h and a common ,resource.h is included as a read only header file. when i need to include a new resource ,i want the id to be added to resource.h and not Strings.h i.e associated header file Do you have any solution for that? Also,even if i use the resource.h as a symbol header file for all the resources,an update on any resource would cause jumble up the rc files.for eg: strings.rc would start having bitmaps,and toolbars. any idea on how to add new resource to any .rc so that it gets updated in the common header file ?:confused: Jim456 -- modified at 20:10 Monday 7th November, 2005
