    Create or edit Resource files

    Help in getting me started to create and edit a Recource file in VB6 will be highly appreciated. I am struggling to develop a video poker game (still sort of a beginner) and want to add the cards to a recource file eg Cards.res.

    If there is any one who do have video poker source code or know where I can find some to guide me in my project it then please help.

    Greetings from sunny South Africa

    Just tried it again and it works fine. Are you on a slow connection?

    Re: Create or edit Resource files

    Why do you want to store your cards in a resource file when you can use Cards.dll, Cards32.dll, Qcard32.dll, Vbcards.dll or Vbcards.ocx to make your card game.

    I've been programming with VB for 25 years. Started with VB4 16bit Pro, VB5 Pro, VB6 Pro/Enterprise and now VB3 Pro. But I'm no expert, I'm still learning.

    Re: Thanks RobDog888 and KeithUK

    Yes very slow out of Africa.
    Startied lerning myself on VB6. Tough going. Keith I will certainly look into VBCards.dll and OCX. Not sure how it works but will give it a go

    Thanks again
