a few basic question about resource filesI have an application that uses resource files to contain the string values for each language. I have created the required resource files in my project, but I don't speak the languages I wish to have resources for. What I would like to do, is somehow allow the end user to edit the resource file themselves so they can set the string values as needed. Is there a way to edit the resource files that ship with my application and get installed ? or Is there a way to have external resource files (not embedded into my application) that can be updated/replaced with out the need to reinstall my application. Thanks That is exactly the reason why many avoid the inbuilt language parts and use
an external XML file with a nice class to set the correct language according to the user system settings. An XML dataset is very fine for this.
