Why would you like to have multiple resource sections in your executable? You should try to make an experience with multiple .res files. ( using Fasm.exe as assembler )

I don't know for sure, but I doubt it - one of the things windows is VERY picky about is the structure of the resource directory...

Just wondering if this is possible, I wanted to use a file that was posted here that would give all your dialogs, buttons, and other things the windows XP look. but it used the fasmw macros to defined the resource section. I mainly use RadAsm and a .res file for my resource data. So I was wondering if I could use two resource sections, one for fasmw macros, and one for .res files created by RadAsm.
So that's the reason, It would be nice if you could. |

Well, actually, windos shouldn't rely on something like "resource section". It use "resource directory of PE file" instead. Resource directory entries can point to data in *any* section of PE file.
This is theory. BUT in practice it probably won't work well, because of some lame windos dll is using hardcoded string '.rsrc' :-/ May be XP is fixed, but there are many other version of windos arround... |

May have to use a resource hack utility to combine two resources into one, that may be the only way to do what I want to do. Yep, the only way.
