I'm just getting into Strataframe... I've been working through a lot of the tutorials and I'm looking at the Messaging tutorial. Could someone explain the benefits of the messaging component a little more? It looks cool!

1) The messaging tables can be added to any database that is deployed with your application.  As for including the data with the localization tables, there is a new wizard in 1.5 that will create the deployment data packages (and add the localization tables) for both the localization and security.

2) You will not need to "point" your project to your DDT profile becase the DDT profile will contain the deployment data packages to gather the messages when a new package is created for the DDT.

3) When you set the solution preferences to point to a specific project, the localization type editors will search within the project for a key matching the key and/or value you specify.  Once the "LocalizationKey" property is set on a control, the control will retrieve the appropriate value at runtime for localization by searching with the localization store for the text value matching the key that is set as the LocalizationKey property.
