Can you not use the ResEdit that comes with VSNET2003 to produce a res file?
it only produces .resx and .resources---is .resources the same as .res?
If so I should create it there and maybe add an external tool that calls vbc
on the app or something.
What a pain.
Looks like MS would have thought of this. For now I will just ship the
icons as ico files I guess.
Seems everything with MS is 85% excellent but the 15% that should have been
done to make a simple app is always missing. :(
Any more Ideas appreciated.

This is not possible with the IDE. You will have to use the command
line compiler ("vbc.exe"):
