Where Are We?

Resources are a great way to bundle arbitrary data, both untyped (in manifest resources) and typed (in .resources resources). VS05 provides extensive support for embedding both kinds of resources, even providing them on a per-component basis or, for even more usability, as strongly typed properties. And for forms that need to support internationalization, VS05 handles that, too, although WinRes is a better choice when nondevelopers are doing specific localization.
