resource files compatibility from Compaq VF to Intel VF

I just received my new Intel VF 11. For several years I developed codes by using CVF 6.6. My question regards resource files (*.rc). In CVF this was the normal format about resources files, but in IVF if I try to open a .rc file I don't have access to the toolbox to insert buttons, checkboxes .... . In order to create a new resource file I need to use a .rct file; in this way the controls become active and I can edit the dialog box. Now the problem (and my question) is how can I convert my old .rc files of CVF in .rct files of IVF? Is it possible?
Thanks

My guess is that you are using the included Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Premier Partner Edition. As noted in product descriptions and release notes, this does not include the Microsoft resource editor since MS chooses not to provide that except as part of Visual C++. As noted in the release notes and the "Migrating from Compaq Visual Fortran" knowledge base article, you can download a free tool called ResEdit which can open, edit and save resource files. You have to use this from outside VS but the changes it makes will be usable within VS.
