First - my apologies if this has been answered a hundred times over! D'oh!
But my search-fu apparently sucks, as I'm having no luck answering this basic question:
How are resources stored in the EXE/DLL? As UNICODE (UCS-2, Windows native internal character format), or as multibyte characters using the code-page of the resources block?
- How does one embed UNICODE strings into one's resources (.rc)?
- Can UNICODE (UCS-2) text be inserted into the language strings from within VS 2012?
- Is Windows still using UCS-2, or is it using UTF16 internally?
I'm just looking for general answers, or links to details, rather than a detailed how-to for putting a UNICODE string into an .rc string table. Thanks!

If in doubt take a look at the hex. Here the start of notepad.exe's rc file, in UTF16:
