Ya first of all just like to thank everyone for helping out cant use Cbytes for the application and ya the buffer doesnt get filled by only 2... its filled by user specified items. So ill probably use the memcpy function that DavidCrow suggested, the buffer will be reduced by checking the amount the user filled. Was hoping i didnt need to create another buffer array but seems like best solution is to cpy it so far. Thanks, Mepho

This type of resource is usualy not to be modified once you set it. Why would you want to change it from within your program ? I use the following code lines in the "resource.rc" file: #ifndef _MAC //////////////////// // Version Info VS_VERSION_INFO VERSIONINFO FILEVERSION 0,0,0,0 PRODUCTVERSION 0,0,0,0 FILEFLAGSMASK 0x3fL #ifdef _DEBUG FILEFLAGS 0x1L #else FILEFLAGS 0x0L #endif FILEOS 0x40004L FILETYPE 0x1L FILESUBTYPE 0x0L { BLOCK "StringFileInfo" { BLOCK "041804b0" { VALUE "Comments", "\0" VALUE "CompanyName", "\0" VALUE "FileDescription", "\0" VALUE "FileVersion", "0.0.0.0\0" VALUE "InternalName", "\0" VALUE "LegalCopyright", "\0" VALUE "LegalTrademarks", "\0" VALUE "OriginalFilename", "\0" VALUE "PrivateBuild", "0\0" VALUE "ProductName", "\0" VALUE "ProductVersion", "0.0.0.0\0" // here you can insert other values of your own, like: // VALUE "DISCLAIMER", "Your own Disclaimer\0" } } BLOCK "VarFileInfo" { VALUE "Translation", 0x418, 1200 } } #endif // !_MAC

Anyone know a way without using another source file to copy from? any help woule be appreciated
