                  The Resource Compiler CODEPAGE Statement
 
CODEPAGE codepage-id
 
The CODEPAGE statement sets the code page for all subsequent resources. The
code page specifies the character set used for characters in the resource.
 
If the CODEPAGE statement is not given in a resource-definition file, rc
uses the code page set up for the individual system. If more than one
CODEPAGE statement is given in the file, each CODEPAGE statement applies to
the resource statements between it and the next CODEPAGE statement.
