Cannot edit .RC file


Cannot edit .RC file Michael T

visual studio .net ide:
I just started using VC++ 7.1 and noticed that the IDE does not seem to
allow you to open the RC file for editing. It can only be edited from the
Resource Editor.

Whereas in VC++ 6.0 you could search on a text string in the .RC file and
when found you could open the file.

Is there a workaround in 7.1?

Michael

Michael,

In the Solution Explorer pane, right click the .rc file and choose
Open With. You should then see a list of options for how to edit the
file.
