    Updateresource API

    Hi,
    I'm trying to change some of resources within a compiled exe with the
    updaterecource API in Visual Basic. But I just can't figure out how I
    should do it. Searching the internet didn't help me either.
    I hope that some one can provide me some code to help me.

    To make it a bit more clear (I hope):
    What I'm trying to do is editing some string tables within an exe using
    the updateresource API. Resource editing using programs like reshack
    isn't difficult but I would like to do the same but than with my own
    patch and without using programs like reshack.

    Thanks in advance,

    Hades

      Hades - it would be helpful if you posted your declaration of this API
      and some sample code that uses this declaration....

          The problem is that I can't find any sample code in vb on the internet.
          I hoped that someone here could provide me with some sample code.
          I forgot to add this link to the MSDN information http://tinyurl.com/r89ow.

          A code example (not vb) can be found here: http://tinyurl.com/lrj3u

          Thanks for your response,
