In asp.net I use like this:
gridView_Desti.Columns["CODE_DEST"].Caption = (string) HttpContext.GetGlobalResourceObject("Client", "Code_Dest");
How can I do the same thing on WinForm ?
Client is the resource name file --> Client.resx
Code_Dest is string on Client.resx --> string Code_Dest, value Code Destinataire
You should have an auto-generated class called Resources in the Properties namespace of your project. Each resource is exposed as a property in that class.
You can do :
Client.ResourceManager.GetString("Code_Dest");
Depending on the culture, it will look for the string in Client.en-US.resx (if en-US is your current culture) and if it fail, in Client.resx.
You can also acces like this (Code_Dest must be in Client.resx) :
Client.Code_Dest;
Resources1.YourResourcesNameHope this help,
If you don't have the namespace in, then prepend with "Properties" C# as so:
Properties.Resources1.YourResourcesName
Makes your code so much cleaner using the resx file. As an example, I have a DataGridViewImageColumn and assigned an image to it (from VS Image Library - the image is a .png file):
colAddNewItem.Image = Properties.Resource1.Add_16x;
FYI, in VB.Net it's
Resources.Resources1.YourResourcesName
There are many other ways, but this is the simplest, cleanest & preferred method.
