Localization Issues with Windows Form (.resx) file

Hello,

I need to know how can I generate a .resx file from code for different
language culture. Basically the .resx file is in binary, is there anyway
that I can generate a text file contains all the text for each controls on
the form which then can be converted to a .resx file for a given culture.

Basically I want to do what WINRES.EXE does but through code.

Thanks,

Hi,

Thanks for your post. I'd like to share the following information with you:

1. .resx fie is of the XML format, we are able to read/write a .resx file
easily with the classes under System.Resources namespace say,
ResXResourceReader, ResXResourceWriter, etc. Please refer to the following
MSDN article for detailed information.

Resources in .Resx File Format
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...us/cpguide/htm
l/cpconresourcesinresxfileformat.asp

2. In addition, I believe the following documentation is very helpful for
developing World-Ready applications:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...us/cpguide/htm
l/cpcondesigningglobalapplications.asp

Please feel free to let me know if you have any problems or concerns.

Have a nice day! :-)
