Localisation of Resources.resx

[GAZ]

Hello all,

I'd like to know is there a resource editor one could use to create another
localised version of Resources.resx?

Winres.exe does not work. It reports tons of errors when I try to open the
resource file with it.

Thanks for you help.

BR,

Simply copy the file, rename it to "Resources.de-DE.resx" (you can use any
language identifier instead of the 'de-DE' which stands for German
(Germany)) and add it to the project.

Thanks for the answer Herfried. I know how to make the localised resources
file in the Visual Studio. However, my problem is not that.

What I need to do is send such localised file to a professional interpreter
for translation of all messages, etc. Now, as they do not have Visual Studio
and I cannot dish out copies of Visual Studio I was actually looking for
some lightweight editor that would enable them to translate the file in
question without them having to go through the XML itself.

I would be grateful if anyone can point me in the direction of such editor.

Thanks for your help.

BR,

Use a localization tool such as Sisulizer
http://www.sisulizer.com

It extracts data from resources and stores them to its project file. Then
you send the project file to translator and he uses free translator editon.
Finalyl he sends translated project fiel back to you, you import it let
Sisulizer to create localized .resx file (and optionally also compile
satellite assembly files).

Thank you for your answer Jaakko. This looks just like a piece of software
we were looking for.

I've used Visual Studio Express before in scenario's like these.

Thank you for your answer Jaakko. This looks just like a piece of software

You might also want to take a look at Infralution's Globalizer.NET.
It is very reasonably priced and also has a free Translator edition.
The Translator Edition can preview your actual forms/controls as they
are translated and even build the fully localized version of your
application - all without the translator needing your source code.

You can get more information and download an evaluation version from:

www.infralution.com/globalizer.html
