MESSAGETABLE resource
Defines the ID and file of an application's message table resource. Message tables are special string resources used in event logging and with the FormatMessage function. The file contains a binary message table generated by the message compiler, MC.EXE.
The message compiler also generates a resource script file that contains the MESSAGETABLE statements you need to include the message table resources in the compiled resource file. Use the #include directive to include this resource script into your main resource script.
