How to ADD/EXTRACT files to a .Res file -

I need to know a little more, how do i add files (my .exe and its dependencies) to a .Res file... and then how do i add that .Res file to another .Exe file that can UNPACK the files from the .Res file and run them...
So that I can send my users ONLY one .Exe file.... ??

I've read up on the forum,but not found a good/understandable/working explanation...

So i need to know:

-How to make the .RES file in VB6
-How to add .EXE and .OCX/DLL to it
-How to pack that .RES file into another .EXE and have that .EXE
unpack the files that were packed in the .REs file,and then run the .EXE it just unpacked...

Can anyone please explain that,since a lot of you seem to know how to do this... ???
