Hi,

I 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.
 
Hi,

Thanks for your advice....

Any places or samples you are aware of that I can see how to do this ?

Again, thanks
