Hi Sridar,



I did some work for standard english (en) and french (fr). I did the

following:



1. create 2 assembly resource files in your project (File->Add New 

Item...

Assembly Resource Files). For example strings.resx and strings.fr.resx

2. fill the resource files by using the editor of Visual Studio.NET

3. build the solution. VS.NET will create one satellite assembly for the 



french resources under the bin directory of your project

(bin/fr/projectName.resources.dll). English resources are contained in 

the

main dll of your project (bin/projectName.dll).

4. then edit you global.asax.vb file:

    Sub Application_Start(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)

        Try

            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture =3D

CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(Request.UserLanguages(0))

        Catch

            Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture =3D new 

CultureInfo("en")

        End Try

        Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture =3D

Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture

        Application("RM") =3D New ResourceManager("projectName.strings", 



Me.GetType().Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly)

End Sub

5. To get a string identified by "home_welcomeLabel) from the resources:



    ...

    Protected WithEvents home_welcomeLabel As

System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label

    ...

    Dim rm as ResourceManager

    rm =3D Application("RM")

    home_welcomeLabel.Text =3D rm.GetString("home_welcomeLabel")



I hope it will help. If you change your language from Internet Explorer, 



you should get the right resource in the language you choose. I also

suggest that you use a program named Reflector to see the content of 

your

main dll.
