I've got 5MBworth of data that needs to be included inside the executable of a program that I will distribute. I CANNOT include this as an external binary file as it increases my security risk.
Without having to manually (or without writing a script to do it) take this data and put it into a bigass array, is there a way to compile the .bin file into the exe? How would I do so and access the data sequentially?
Thanks for any info,
Phil
Include it as binary resource and go here:

sweet...thanks!
If it's for security, you can still change it from a resource with simple tools.
Well, it's not actually "for security". But the data I deffinatly don't want falling into the wrong hands. Although the data is totally encrypted and is decrypted by a hardware device attached to a USB port which is what uses the data, including it as a "binary resource" should add an additional level of frustration for my fellow hackers than it would sitting on the drive ;)
