Internationalization Issues

Hi all, We're trying to make a different language version of our product. We've implemented dynamic .DLL resource loading. The problem is editing the resource file, which has to be done by people outside the company (since none of us speak Japanese). VS .NET 2003 (and below) don't seem to allow us to enter Katakana characters, instead, it replaces them with ????. Even on Japanese systems. Even running Japanese Visual Studio. We tried converting the resource file to UNICODE, and then we can have whatever characters we want in the file, but the UNICODE file can't be edited in Visual Studio - which won't do for translation purposes. Does anyone have any experience with this sort of thing? Any third-party resource editor reccommendataions? Any experience trying to edit a resource file in a different locale? Thanks, Eco
