It would be better to see a particular example which doesn't work as
expected and information on what happens instead of the expected
behaviour.

In general, the standard IBM resource compiler RC.EXE is included in
optional item in the OS/2 standard installer covering development tools
(together with e.g. the standard linker LINK386.EXE). In addition, the
Developers Toolkit (included as an additional package in eComStation)
includes these standard IBM tools too. Finally, there are also 3rd party
resource compilers (in particular the free Watcom C/C++ compiler includes
a cross-platform resource compiler allowing compilation of resources also
on other platforms).
