How I'm I supposed to use string tables?

Hi,
I used to use string tables in my apps to switch between languages in
VB6. But now I must program in .NET and I don't know how it works at all for
string tables...

Can anyone help me please? Is there something better than string tables?

Thanks

Hi ThunderMusic,

In .NET, we store localized resource including strings into satellite
assemblies, which are basically created from different resx files meant for
different cultures. RESX/resource files replace the string table we used back
in pre-.NET days.

There are a number of content and examples in MSDN on globalization and
localization

ok, it seems very easy, but with these things, is it possible to go from one
language to another within the same session of the application?

let say my OS is english, so the app opens in english, but then, I want the
app to display my things in french, then go to german, then go back to
english... is there a way to do so with localisation settings?

Thanks
