5.0 out of 5 stars A great source of resource file formats, January 10, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Windows Undocumented File Formats; Working Inside 16- and 32- bit Windows (Paperback)
Something not highlighted in any of the comments I've seen on this book is that it contains a .res to .rc conversion utility which I think alone is worth the price of the book.
