Hello,I am trying to develop software that will be sold by different
companies(OEM), and need a way to easily customize the resources in the
product to bevendor specific. This would be similar to ResourceManager's
ability to getthe correct resources for the different cultures, however, our
product willbe the same culture, but different vendors. A few years back, I
vaguely remember creating a .dll containing resourceslike string tables (in
c++) that would be 'shipped' with the .exe for aparticular vendor.
LoadLibrary() would be called to retrieve the particularstrings, icons, etc.
for that vendor from the .dll. Is there any way to do something similar to
this for a .net application? Thank you,Lauren Hines
 
Hi, I think System.Resources.ResXResourceReader might give you what you
need.

hi,

i think you can use satellite assembly for that.
it is flexible, especially if in the future you want to
support multiple languages.
