howto modifying resource on an existing assembly (.exe) ??

[# Cyrille37 #]

Hello,

I'm trying to add a resource to an existing assembly, but I failed.
I've only nearly found how to create a new assembly, but not change a existing one.

I would like to write a little C# program that store some text inside a
resource, without a external file storage.
For example : an auto extracting zip file or a auto decrypt gnupgp file.

You launch the program then type some text. When you leave the program it store
the text inside a copy of it self.

Any idea ?

Thanks a lot,
cyrille

I doubt this can be done (using only one executable). Why don't you
want to use a simple text file or something?
