A Windows program is made up of two main elements: the source code and
the resources that the compiled code uses as it executes. Resources are things
such as icons, little graphics to represent the mouse pointer, bitmaps to appear

together in a
.RC file which is a simple text file that is normally only viewed by
using an integrate development environment such as Microsoft’s Developer
Studio. The resources are compiled in their own right (into a
.RES file) and
then this and the object modules that result from the compilation of the
C/C++ source codes are combined with any libraries to form the executable
image of the application program. ...
