Question

I'm working on a project I did not start and I added

#define IDS_SELF_UPDATE_EXIT            266

and

IDS_CONFIRM_EXIT        "Are you sure you want to quit?"

and I got the following error twice:

error RC2135: file not found

What am I doing wrong?

You seem to be trying to create a stringtable resource. The correct syntax is

STRINGTABLE
BEGIN
  IDS_CONFIRM_EXIT        "Are you sure you want to quit?"
END
