I am creating a resource only dll,by pulling out resources from existing application and having seperate .rcs for strings,menus,etc. There seems to be one issue I need a common header for all the .rcs..:| As of now,each .rc file i.e Strings.rc,Menus.rc etc have a seperate symbol header file like Menus.h and a common ,resource.h is included as a read only header file. when i need to include a new resource ,i want the id to be added to resource.h and not Strings.h i.e associated header file Do you have any solution for that? Also,even if i use the resource.h as a symbol header file for all the resources,an update on any resource would cause jumble up the rc files.for eg: strings.rc would start having bitmaps,and toolbars. any idea on how to add new resource to any .rc so that it gets updated in the common header file ?:confused: Jim456 -- modified at 20:10 Monday 7th November, 2005

any idea on some good localization tools? Jim456

Multiple filename for single resource i.e Icon is not happening.any suggestions on the sharing of filenames between two icons in an .rc file? Jim456

Are there any localization tools which would indicate a resource in one language to change when the same resource id is updated in another language in the same RC file? Jim456

How does an application identify different languages supported by a single resource at runtime ? Jim456

This sounds very basic but, why cant the dll have like multiples copies on the system? Jim456

Is Multiple version of a sinlge dll for each language possible? Jim456
