Using VS2005/2008 as a resource editor, one of the options in the Add Resource dialog is HTML: it appears to allow me to embed HTML file(s) into a resource (res) file. Does anyone know how to grab the HTML (as a string) from VB6 code? The LoadResData appears to be close to what I’m looking for but the problem is there isn’t a HTML format defined in the table of formats (in that documentation link).
In Win32 C headers a resource format constant is defined called RT_HTML, it has the value 23. It should be possible to load the HTML resource type. Additionally you can verify the resource type number by looking at the built exe file with Resource Hacker. It lists the resource format types and resource IDs embedded in the file.
