    I am getting the following error when I try to access my Resource Files in Visual C++ v6

    "The file is already open in an editor."

    I've tried closing all windows in the IDE and closing the project, even tried logging out and back in.

    All to no avail.

    A google search turned up only a few ideas, in English, and they didn't work.

    I *really* don't want to have to reenter the entire project.

    Thanks!

    You are trying to edit your RC file in an editor but it is already open in the workspace window in the left pane probably and so you are getting that error.
