For each of my C#-projects i create three resources under the properties-folder.</p> <table> <thead> <tr> <th>Resource</th> <th>Description</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td><code>Images.resx</code></td> <td>contains images for the application <!-- raw HTML omitted --> (mostly not needed to be localized, only for simple resource-access)</td> </tr> <tr> <td><code>Messages.resx</code></td> <td>contains strings of messages for users <!-- raw HTML omitted --> (such as contents of MessageBoxes)</td> </tr> <tr> <td><code>Resources.resx</code></td> <td>(normally created from VS by default) <!-- raw HTML omitted --> contains GUI-relevant stuff (such as label- and button-texts)</td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <p>For this example we use a simple message text in Messages.resx. The name of the localizable message text is MsgSampleText. <img src="https://web.archive.org/web/20090203002049id_/http://marko.apfel.googlepages.com/EsriDe.Samples.Localization.02.png" alt="Screenshot for Multilanguage with C#" loading="lazy" decoding="async"></p>
