[John]

I have a application that can pick up the resource file and display localized
string on my dev pc but cannot do he same thin in the target pc.

What am I missing?

Thanks.

Hi John,

I'm no expert on localization, but are your satellite assemblies installed
correctly? If my memory serves me right there should be subfolders in your
application root for each localized resource.

Is the target machine running the expected culture? Has the target machine
selected another culture for dialogs and menus?

Try checking the CurrentUICulture which is used when picking the resource
files.

As a comparison, although I run using Norwegian settings
CultureInfo.CurrentUICulture.DisplayName will output "English(United States)"
as I have selected English as the language for menus and dialogs.
