I have a two files lets say File1.BMP and File2.TXT which i want to write on the hard drive. How do i access those files that are included the project? I am looking to have these two files to be compiled into the executable and be extracted at a certain point in my application.

I've tried looking around but have not found that much.

Thank you in advance.

Look at my reply to rotter512...

Once you add the files as resources and compile the app, it's a piece of cake to extract them at runtime.
