Changing the Properties of a String
The latest version of this topic can be found at Changing the Properties of a String.
To change a string or its identifier
Open the string table by double-clicking its icon in Resource View.
Note
If your project doesn't already contain an .rc file, please see Creating a New Resource Script File.
Select the string you want to edit, and double-click the ID, Value, or Caption column. Now you can:
Select an ID from the ID drop-down list, or type an ID directly in place.
Type a different number in the Value column.
Type edits in the Caption column.
Note
You can also edit a string's properties in the Properties window.
