I'm beginning work on an MFC project and I'd like to know where the values for all of my resources are kept. For instance if I have a button, let's say IDC_OK. I can alter that button in any way I wish using Microsoft's Visual Studio.net and I can see all of the values in the properties box, but where is the code itself that tells the compiler I want a box 400x300 pixels wide name myBox, etc.? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Thanks in advance.

Check out your resource (.rc) script file.

Here's what a dialog looks like from one of my resource files as an example:
