files from *.rc are not refreshed when compiling/building

Question

I have a file that needs to be refreshed every days, linked into a rc file this way :

docs.rc

  file RCDATA "C:\folder\myfile.ext"

I understand that it refreshes the resources itself if changes are made in my *.rc file... only. The only way i found to be sure that the resource is refreshed is removing it, compiling, setting it back and compiling again.

Any piece of advice, pre-compiling command or anything better ?

Thanks !

Using Delphi XE2 Enterprise.

[edit]

of course i forgot this line from project code :

{$R 'docs.res' 'docs.rc'}

Answer 1

Open your project. Go to Project Menu then select Resources and Images item. Then add your resources to the list instead of RC file.

It will solve your problem.
