Okay, so say I have a compiled DLL that contains a string resource.
I don't have access to the source code of the dll, but I wish to change that
resource.
How can I do that? :-)

Given that resources are (officially) read only, your best bet would be to
use ildasm to disassemble the assembly, edit the string, and recompile it. http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...perability.asp has a bit on how to do that.

Well ildasm's code isn't quite recompilable easily. And I really don't want
to mess up the rather extensive functionality in that dll.
