There is a set of TMPLs for ResEdit 2.1 that allow you to edit several 
System 7.0 resources.  The file is caled ResEdit7.0tmpls or something
like that, and is available from sumex-aim.stanford.edu.  I do not 
think ResEdit will grok fvew resources with these tmpls, but it will 
allow you to edit fvals.  Hope this helps.
