Hi

I'm trying to append a DATA file to the end of a C exe. 

Does anyone know how this can be done?
Are there any source code examples out there?
Are there any internet links I can look up?

Any little help would be great....

I'm going to presume, since you posted this to some Windows programming 
newsgroups, that you would like a Windows answer. That is:

You can make a resource out of any file you like. See the RCDATA 
statement in your resource editor documentation and FindResource(), 
LoadResource(), etc. in your Windows API documentation.
