          MESSAGETABLES
Then you can use FormatMessage() and things are much less brain-bamaging.
But then you need some extra software to compile the messagetables. Unless binutils has grown support for this recently, we can't use messagetables.

windres cannot compile them? The man or info page doesn't say that certain ressourcetypes are unsupported. But I haven't tried that yet. -- Reini Urban http://xarch.tu-graz.ac.at/home/rurban/
