2008 Multilingual String Display Adding Resources Err:MissingManifestResourcesException?
May 26, 2010
Developing a multilingual application in VB.Net 2008, Im able to add resources to forms and create a multilingual forms depending on uiculture. On reading Msdn on creating the multilingual string values for messagebox contents, have added the .resource file to the project files path as specified. There is no error on compilation but throws the MissingManifestResourceException error
Dim rm As ResourceManager
rm = ResourceManager.CreateFileBasedResourceManager("strFormResources", ".", Nothing)
[code].....
There is strFormResources.resources and strFormResources.fr-FR.resources in Resources of the project. I have searched for this error details but could not find a solution. What am i doing wrong or is there any other method for displaying multilingual strings in the messagebox.

I am currently working on converting an app from VB6 to VB.NET 2.0 - I am only using 2.0 to provide Win 2k compatibility, AFAIK, Win 2k can't run any framework newer then 2.0. Part of the conversion includes moving multilingual support over. In the VB6 version, we were storing the translated text in an Excel document - the xls could be passed to translators. A script in the xls file would dump the languages to individual text files and generate a LanguageRescource.rc file which was then compiled using RC.exe.
When the app started or the user selected a language, the resource file was read using:
Public Sub LoadLang(ByVal LangNum As Byte)
Dim bData() As Byte
[CODE]...
It was then split using vbNewLine as a delimiter and the lines assigned to the labels and to a public array for use in other places in the program (message boxes, log files, etc). Doing the same thing in .NET doesn't seem possible, or is rather convoluted. I have read many articles on globalisation, localisation, etc and it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me. I am wanting to have the language files built in to the executable, not as dependencies. From what I can tell after reading all of this information is there are at least 2, if not more to do it.
1) Use form localisation. This would require changing all the captions and things for each language, this would in turn generate frmMain.<lang>.resx files.
The correct file would be loaded automatically on form/program startup and is hard to change at runtime if the user wishes. it would also cost me a fair bit of time to add every one of the 23 languages. It also would not satisfy my other requirements of message boxes and output to log files.
2) Make a resource file and store the strings in there, in a similar fashion to what I was doing in VB6. The problem is, how do I separate each languages strings? Each resx file only seems to be capable of storing on string table.

I want to update my existing application(s) to support multiple languagescultures.
There are a lot of artilcles on Globalization and using cultureinfo class.
I haven't came accross any article which tells about the approach to carry out such conversions.
From what i can see is that I have to update all my interface text , consider culture specific number, date formats and string comparisons.
1. What is most recommendedused method for setting interface text to support multiple languages.
2. Are there any tools available which helps me carry out these changes

I would like to put some (image, folder etc ) in resources. However I am not sure how to do this.
I have put the .txt file, .iso image in resources (from my project) but unable to add blank folder.
This folder is referring to "sc1" folder in my codes.
sc.CaptureScreen.Save("sc1/" & imagename & ".jpg", System.Drawing.Imaging.ImageFormat.Jpeg)
I do not know how to call this item in the codes using my resources (e.g. my.resources.pic.jpeg ?? )
The main reason I would like to do this is because when I publish the project, Upon clicking setup installation everything will be embedded together in respective folder instead of I add it manually.

My problem concerns ListboxItems in WPF using VB.net. I have a window.Resources attached to a TargetType ListboxItem:
<window.Resources>
<Style TargetType="{x:Type ListBoxItem}">
<Setter Property="FontSize" Value="13.0"/>
[Code]....
Which seemed the most logical thing to do, but that didn't work.. This problem has been my concern for over a few hours now and it's the first one that made me come to Dreamincode to ask for a subtle hint.

I am sure that it is very easy but I could not manage it. my aim is to choose some items from a listbox and a picturebox will display the photo in resources with the same name of the item in list box. here is the code I wrote but I cannot make it work.PictureBox1.Image = My.Resources.Resource1.ListBox1.SelectedItem
it gives a mistake telling that listbox1 is not a member of Resource1. I know this; but the result of Listbox1.selected item is a member of resource1...

I'm working on a program where I've got a WebBrowser control that displays an HTML file from my 'Resources' folder. Like so... WebBrowser1.DocumentText = My.Resources.MyHTMLFile That displays the text from the HTML file just fine, but it does not display the CSS styles or images that the HTML file uses (even though I've added the CSS file and images to the 'Resources' folder as well).

I'm just wondering if it's possible to display a string in a integer column in a DataGridView? The reason I'm asking is that I have a column wich displays the place for each runner (it's a sports application). And if the runner is disqualified, it will display "DSQ" instead of the place.
Now, if I want to sort by clicking the column header, there's a problem if there are more than 10 runners. If there are like 12 runners, the sorting will be like this:

I am trying to load a GIF file by its string name from my.resources as what GIF to show is chosen at random and based off that random number we get a valid string name. The names come out proper because I used the Msgbox trick
Here is my faulty coding
Public Function PrintCardName(ByVal Suit As String, ByVal Hand As String, ByRef ImgBoxUpdate As System.Windows.Forms.PictureBox)
'Working code omitted to save reading time
ImgBoxUpdate.Image = My.Resources.ResourceManager.GetObject(Card_File_N ame)
End Function
And Card_File_Name is a predefined string, and no there is no space after the letter N in card_file_name it just appears that way because its italicized
The issue is that the Imagebox that is referanced to IMGBOXUPDATE goes blank after this function.

I know that if you create a string like:dim a as string = "My String"if you open the compiled .exe in a hex editor you will see there "My String"now my question is about the Resources:if I add a string there, how easy would be for one to have access to it?Is it a plain xml that anyone could see or does it stay pretty hidden?

I'm trying to learn how to make multilingual apps. All defaults text for controls are saved in Form1.resx (Created automatically by VB.NET). I've set the Localizable property to True and Language to German(Austria). So far so good and VB.NET created the file Form1.de-AT.resx.Both resource file contain text for the different controls on the form. When I click on a particular button on the form, I want a custom message to be displayed according to the language setting/resource file in use.In both Form1.resx and Form1.de-AT.resx i've added another row for the custom message. How do I write the code so that when the button is clicked, it retrieves the custom message from the appropriate resource file? [code]Another thing, is Localization only for changing language or does it affect date and number formats also? Just asking because if a PC Regional Options settings is set to English(United Kingdom) and I do 5/2 the result is 2.5. If it's set to German(Austria) the result returned is 2,5But in VB.NET, if I use Thread. CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("de-AT") (i.e German-Austria) the result returned for 5/2 is 2.5 and not 2,5

I have some code that splits a session into strings by a -
My session looks something like this 123-456-789- and I split it like this
Dim MyString As String() = Session("MySession").Split("-"C)
And i've got a some code like this
Dim x as Integer
For x = 0 to MyString - 1
Response.write("Ref: " & MyString(x) & "<br>")
Next
This writes the code like this
Ref: 123
Ref: 456
Ref: 789
Ref:
So it's adding an extra Ref where it shouldn't be because there is no data after the last -
Is there a way to stop this adding in the extra one?
