I have created a binary graphics type and I save them as binary
files. I can load those files in my graphics constructor but I would
like to load them as resources. The data in the file is first the
number of graphics (int) then a vector or an array of the data of BYTE
types.

How do I read the resource then take the data from the resource and
put it right places in my object.

This is how I save the data:
void graphic::save(std::ofstream& f){
f.write((char*)&number, sizeof(int));
for(int lp = 0; lp != (size * number); lp++){
f.write((char*)&bitData[lp], sizeof(BYTE));
}
}

Something like:

void* p = NULL;
HRSRC hRes =
FindResource(hInstance,MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDR_BIN1),TEXT("BINARY"));
if(hRes){
HGLOBAL hglob = LoadResource(hInstance,hRes);
if(hglob)
p = LockResource(hglob);
}

p should point to your binary data now

Thanks that is all very useful, now I have to figure out how to write
the scrips for all this. I have my resource file:
#define IDR_BINTYPE 500
.rc:
IDR_BINTYPE BINTYPE "pointer.bin"

This is in my main function:
point = new graphic(IDR_BINTYPE, hinstance);
and it says that IDR_BINYTPE 36
C:\Documents and Settings\Work\My Documents\C++\makeGr\main.cpp
`IDR_BINTYPE' undeclared (first use this function)

I am trying to work with the code I don't have good resources on how
to do what I am trying to do. so p points to the data, how do I copy
the data in p to my two variables
int end (used to count the number of data elements and
BYTE the data elements that go into a vector.

However you like. You can use memcpy, you can cast void pointer p to
pointer of any type you wish and and then either use index operator with
it or dereference it. What's the problem? You don't know how to use
pointers?
