Make sure "ExampleResources.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "Example" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed.

I'm currently developing a compact program, but i need to use some .dll as references. Thats ok! But the problem is, i need the .dll reference together in the same directory as the program which i dont want to, since i need it to be compact, just on .exe.
Is there any way to load the .dll reference via the Resources or another way?
How would I call a picture from my resources let's say under form_load.

I want to buil an application, in which text boxes can take urdu language. I tried changing the font and put it to Arabic but when I ran it and typed something, it types in English. I do not want user to change regional setting when my application is used. I have seen this in many urdu applications, when we install, we simply run them without changing any settings.

View 7 RepliesAs I said, I have a vb.net application which runs perfectly fine on Windows XP EN. However, it becomes problematic when run it under Windows XP in German Language. I have a string type in app.config file, it stores a color's RGB value "0,102,255" as a string. When the application starts loading, I will grab that value as a string and use ColorConverter object to convert it to a color as shown the following
Dim oConverter As New ColorConverter
Dim oColor As Color = CType(oConverter.ConvertFromString(My.Settings.MyColorString), Color)

View 1 RepliesIn my winform app in VB.NET I want to use the localization option. But i have a few questions/problems. I'm using a menu strip to select an other language. But it seems that is doesn't change my menustip text to my selected language. It does change my labels, buttons, and textboxes but menu strips don't seem to change when I choose another language. Also is it possible to get those resx files such as MyForm.fr-FR.resx compiled so it isn't an external file outside my app? Or to get those files in an Language folder at the same location of my app, so i don't have all those fr-FR & nl-Nl folders in the same location as my program?

View 7 Repliesi 'm develloping an application that uses a sql server database, in my computer where i'm programming i installed the sql server in the same language of the OS, in the tests of the application everything worked fine. Biut after migrating the db to the main server, the values went crazy.. After some research and tests, i saw that the language of the sql server was in english and that was the problem.
My language settings says that the decimal separator is "," and the agrupment digit it's ".", and the sql server works in the other way "." is the decimal separator and the "," it's the agrupment digit. In my code i was using the CDEC to pass the values to the DB, to solve this i removed the cdec and send the parameter as a string (So if i send 2,33 to DB with CDEC i get 233 if i send the 2,33 string i get 2.33). This works for now, but i don't know if in the future i'll have problems...
I'm building a multi language application, but in the application, there will be some data that will be retrieved from the db. In the db I have two tables (Access Groups, Teams) the two tables are related, there are some groups, that have teams, example (sellers can belong to team 1, team 2, team 3...). The data that will change it's the names for the access groups and the names for the teams. The only way that I can think to do this, is to have the different values for all the languages in the code, or some auxiliar file, and when loading the application I'll truncate the two tables and fill them with the current language values. By the way those values never change...
View 5 RepliesVS 2008 SP1. I cannot get my application to display in English, it always displays in French. I have an application that uses 2 languages. The default language is en-GB and the second language is French. For setting the text of the buttons and labels. I have set the localized property to true and changing the language to fr-FR on the form. So setting the default languages controls by choosing the default the language property, and then switching to French language to set the French controls. So I have the following files:
formMain.resx
formMain.fr-FR.resx
formMain.Designer.vb
formMain.vb
And for message boxes and other strings I have added these 2 resource files
formMain.Strings.resx
formMain.Strings.fr-FR.resx
So if I want to switch to different languages I have changed the cultureInfo as follows:
If My.Settings.Default.Language = "fr-FR" Then
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("fr-FR")
Else
Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New CultureInfo("en-GB")
End If
And for string I use the following: MessageBox.Show(formMain_Strings.SameStringName)
I also an address book form that is a child of the formMain. Which I have used the same method. However, the address book works as normal, but the formMain never changes to the language I want. Even though tested by explictly setting the language to en-GB in the form constuctor before the inializeComponent() it will always default to French. Not sure why the address book (child) work correctly, the parent form (formMain) will always display in French, no matter if I have set this to en-GB. I am 100% that my method is correct using what I have show you above. I was thinkng about deleting the formMain and creating a new one. But that would mean doing everything again and would take too long.

View 2 RepliesI am attempting to use several image resources in a web application I am working on, but I am doing something wrong. Here is what I have so far:.An image named frog.gif in a folder named images (/images/frog.gif). This image has the Build Action set to Embedded Resource.
.The Root Namespace (as specified in My Project -> Application) is WebApplication2005.The AssemblyInfo.vb file contains the line:<Assembly: WebResource("WebApplication2005.images.frog.gif", "image/gif")>
.The codebehind file for the page contains the following line in the Load event:
Me.Image1.ImageUrl = Me.Page.ClientScript.GetWebResourceUrl(Me.GetType(), "WebApplication2005.images.frog.gif")
However, when I do a debug, the src attribute of the img tag does have a URL starting with
WebResource.axd, but it is not accessing the resource. What could I be doing wrong? I feel like I have tried everything possible, but with no success.[URL]..
How can I add an .exe to my resources and execute it within my code? Or atleast have that program compile with my project and be able to execute it?
View 5 RepliesGeneral question on linked resources. I just want to clarify what an application does with linked resources. For explanatory purposes lets say that my resources are a bunch of images. My understanding is that linked resources are really just a reference to where that resource is on disk, whereas embedded resources are stored as part of the application.
