The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Win32 Software Development Kit (SDK), versions 3.1, 3.5, 3.51, and 4.0

RCDATA is guaranteed to begin on a DWORD boundary. However, the strings and the integers specified in the statement are not aligned by the Resource Compiler (RC) 

   RCDATA statement:

   resname RCDATA
   BEGIN

       0,0,

   END
The definition of RCDATA is not changed. The strings and integers specified in the statement, 0 in this case, are not aligned on the DWORD boundary. However, the beginning of the data is DWORD-aligned.
