Can I take a text file as a resource and compile it in the exe, and
then how can I use the text in it? Thanks in regards!

I don't know if you can place a whole text in the code and use that as
a resource, but you could create a stringlist object and bind it to
for example a TMemo object.

var
  objStringList : TStringList;
  Memo1 : TMemo

begin

  //Create the stringlist
  objStringList := TStringList.create;
  objStringList.add('line 1');
  objStringList.add('line 2');
  objStringList.add('line 3');
  objStringList.add('line 4');

  //Bind to a Memobox
  Memo1.lines := objStringList

end.

Each line here is limited by 255 characters.

The idea is good but I need to change the text and then save it. The
text is good to be in the exe file after saved.  :? I don't really
know if this is possible  :?
