Windows Forms Programming in Visual Basic .NET

Where Are We?

Resources are a great way to bundle arbitrary data, both untyped (in manifest resources) and typed (in .resources resources). VS.NET provides extensive support for embedding both kinds of resources, even providing them on a per-component basis. And for forms that need to be localized, VS.NET handles that, too, although WinRes is a better choice when nondevelopers are doing the localization.
