Visual Basic 6 (VB6)

Have you ever tried to use the standard resource file methodology included with Visual Basic? You likely found the utilities somewhat lacking (since the good ones are only included with VC++!) and difficult to use. Also, the result of using the standard resource methodology is that you end up with a HUGE FAT EXE file. Not very pleasant or professional, in my mind :)

This Visual Basic 6 source code sample demonstrates how to create your own resource files that are stored outside of the exe file. If you would like a step by step guide check out our Create your own VB6 Resource Files Tutorial.
