Combining resources DLLs

[Paul E Collins]

I'm trying to get my head around .NET localisation.

When I localise a Windows form (using the Localizable and Language
properties), Visual Studio generates the appropriate resource DLLs and
folders (such as 'en-US' for US English).

However, I also want dynamic run-time resources for non-forms
purposes, such as error messages and default values. I know that I can
create and access such a resource DLL using the Resgen tool and
ResourceManager class, but this means I have two DLLs with the same
filename.

How can I combine my resources with those generated by Visual Studio -
or is there a better approach to this problem?

Thanks in advance.

P.

Hi Paul
You can show all files in your project, open the resource file , then in
the data view you can add a name value pairs that you can retrieve later
from within your code you can do that from the xml file as well. It is as
if you are using config file for the application.
