Sure it is. You can add any file as RC_DATA in application as resource. But I believe you will need to extract it to disk first before calling it!

Which IDE/Language you are using?

[EDIT]

Sorry! you did mention that you are using C#.

1. Add a resource file to you application (right click application in IDE and select "Add new item".
2. Use the toolbar in resource editor to add an existing file.
3. Then extract the exe whenever required by calling code something like: System.IO.File.WriteAllBytes (@"C:\MyEXE\", Resource1.MyEXE);
