.NET Forum / Languages / Managed C++ / August 2006Resource Editor Bug
I have upgraded my Win32/C project from MSVC 2003 project to MVSC 2005. But now I can't save any changes on my resource .rc file. I can open it in the resource edit, modify and add new controls. But hitting the CTRL+S or save from the file menu it still have a star mark on the file name. When building the project the changes is not part of the new build. When I exit Microsoft Visual Studio is ask me if I want to save the .rc file, and when pressing the Yes button it give me an application error: AppName: devenv.exe AppVer: 8.0.50727.42 AppStamp:4333e699 ModName: ntdll.dll ModVer: 5.1.2600.2180 ModStamp:411096b4 fDebug: 0 Offset: 00043345 This is critical for me to solve since I can't work on my project anymore. PS! Sending a error report to Microsoft haven't helped me yet. > I have upgraded my Win32/C project from MSVC 2003 project to MVSC > 2005.

Then you should contact Microsoft product support for your region. http://msdn.microsoft.com/visualc/support/ -cd I'm going through a very similar bug myself. I've upgraded my project 2003 to 2005. I haven't tried to update .rc files. I can use resources out of any new .resx file I create. I can't, however, access resources in a pre-created .resx. E.g. if I try to set the icon on my main window to anything but the default, it builds correctly; however, I get a run-time error at form load time that complains that it can't find the resource. Do you also get this? If so, should I figure out how to fix it, I'll post my answer here. Also, just in case. When I upgraded I got link warnings that I hadn't specified a target machine. If you see those warnings set the target machine in your project settings. Your program will run much faster. -- Noah >I have upgraded my Win32/C project from MSVC 2003 project to MVSC 2005. > But now I can't save any changes on my resource .rc file.
