Editing the Project Resource file

[pizzaboy]

Is there a quick way to edit the resource file?

I'm creating a card game application, which requires quite a few images to be added to the resource file. I'd like to separate the images into their unique folders (cards, for example) and make use of IDE's autocomplete functionality (picturebox1.image = My.Resources.cards.s04, but adding them individually via the IDE is a bit of a pain, is there any way I can edit this through NotePad?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

My.Resource are added through the Resources dialog (project properties, resources tab). You can use "Add Existing File..." and select multiple files at once. You can also copy multiple files from Windows Explorer and just paste into this area. My.Resources don't have a "folder" structure.

I figured so...

Thanks for the help yet again JohnH.

Another way to access the Resources dialog page is by enable "show all files" in Solution Explorer and expand the My Porject folder, then doubleclick Resources.resx file.
