Ever get the following error message when opening a PE file?

Cannot enumerate resources in the executable

Turns out that if you have custom resource types, the names of the resources in that type cannot be lower case.

Portable Executable resources

As you see in this example, my resources begin with an upper case P.  Visual Studio will cry if you embed these resources with a lower case P.

Thank you, Visual Studio, for making my work week that much longer…
