Resource Finder Utility

Posted by Uwe Philipps on January 4th, 2000
. RscFinder is a handy tool that helps finding executables or DLLs in Windows 95/98 or NT. Enter a text you are looking for and RscFinder searches all menues, dialogs, stringtables and messagetables of all files in a folder. RscFinder looks and works like the find-tool in the start menu. After searching, a list of hits is displayed. You can copy the path of the filename to the clipboard and open the file with DevStudio ("Open as: Resources") or another tool that displays resources.

    Thank you for this great tool.

    It would be nice to be able to search compiled resource files as well (*.res).
    I know many VB users will appreciate that.

    I would appreciate if the source code is also published.
    A DLL with API interface would also be fine.

    You might also include serching the registry!

    great !

    Some remarks on the GUI:
    - I would have liked to have an Iconize and a Maximize buttons. Good to have made it resizable, but what is the point if you can't maximize it instantly? Probably a side effect of creating an application from a dialog box. I don't like these much, though, for the above reasons, because they disappear if you accidently hit the Esc key after a several minutes search, etc.

    - I don't like the grey labels in the List headers (I have non-standard colors). Use system colors, please.

    - Minor point: Menues? I am not the English expert (you may have guessed...), but everywhere I see Menus. Well, perhaps there are variants.

    - I would like to save or print the result of a search...

    Otherwise, a very fine product.
