      Quite a lot. You need to be able to write a program with a GUI front end that can show menus, dialogs, bitmaps, icons, strings, version resources (and others I may have forgotten) in their natural state. The user will then want to add and remove pieces from them, move objects around, save and reload the resource, etc, etc. Assuming you are a highly skilled developer this should be less than a couple of years' work.

      It's time for a new signature.

          Oh , my god ! I just less than half a year's work experience..... :( Now I use the GDI to draw a static text shape, but I don't know how to handle the shape move message. I want to clearn the old shape, then draw a new static text shape.but the dialog can't catch the window move message when mouse's position is in the client area. (the dialog only can be dragged ,because the mouse postion is in the title bar.) :((
