FxCop Do not pass literals as localized parameters warning

[Tim Sprout]

FxCop gives a "Do not pass literals as localized parameters" warning on the
dot Text properties of my Form1 components in Form1.Designer. These are the
strings that label the buttons and form. I assume that I don't really need
to retrieve these strings using ResourceManager, or do I? How do I avoid
getting this error?

Yes, you need to retrieve them with a ResourceManager.

But there is not need to do this manually.
Just mark the form as localizable (in Properties) and the code generated by
the form editor will do the right thing (the strings will move to a resx
file)

Thank you.
