It depends on your needs.

For VCL apps, you'd use Windows or Winapi.Windows if you are using namespace prefixes.
For FMX cross-platform apps you'd use System.Types.

RT_RCDATA and other RT_... values are defined in the Windows unit.

@JosephPoirier: Yes, but it seems like the rest of them only reside in `Windows`. – Andreas Rejbrand Sep 11 '15 at 18:17
Found it in System.Types, but all the other ones are in Windows unit as you defined... using Delphi XE5 thx. – Joseph Poirier Sep 11 '15 at 18:24
I created a startup folder in my project and just added all my resource files... testing the access now – Joseph Poirier Sep 11 '15 at 18:28
