Hi

As a start you can look at the example in the 2nd zip file in this thread. I uploaded several nice articles+src by Rheingold about the PE structure, one of them being:

Parsing the .rsrc section to locate icons

Although this doesn't help (and coding a resource editor is a technically interesting task if you've not done it before), I'd point out that coding a *good* resource editor is pretty time consuming. If you just need a resource editor, find a tool called ResHacker, it's great.
