programatically switch btwn 2 resource files

[ahoodin7]

MSVC 6.0 Windows XP SP2 MFC Application.

I have two different .rc files that have duplicate resources in them. So I would like to use them both, but I would only like to include one in my project at a time....and I would like to do this programatically. I had thought to use the preprocessor, but have no Idea how.

How do I switch .rc files programatically?

Exclude your other resource file from the build. I don't think that it is possible to distinguish resources with the same "names" after they're built into the executable.

When you do it, do it right.

This is what I had already been doing. I found it kind of kludgy.

Is this your signature or something directed at me?

That was my signature This forum should really implement some distinguish between the main text, and the signature...

Well since they don't, it is left as an excercise for the user or super user as it were.

VB Forums all seem to do it though.
