A resource file contains a collection of icons, menus, dialog boxes,
strings tables, and other stuff.

For instance you might right click on an .exe file and be able to see
the author, version, name, company, etc.  This typically would be in a
resource file.  Likewise the icon associated with an .exe is there.
The menus in an application or often defined in a resource file.
