You are welcome Terry.

...I generate the XML for the messages. I copy the XML's into my project subdirectory or a folder in the subdirectory

What I do is that in the Localization project, in the Output Path, I enter the same path as expected by the VS project, so when you "Generate XML", it will be already in your VS project so when you build your VS project the localization files will be there.  i even create a folder in the VS project named "Localization Files"

Whoa what you just said went over my head. I will have to look at that alot closer to see if I can figure out what you said.

I appreciate your help and will let you know if I can not figure out what you said. Thanks again.

Can you explain a bit more on the above? I copied the XML files into a subdirectory called "Localization Files" and I embedded the files into the exe. I removed the following and my messages seem to work at least on my development machine but I have not tried it yet on the client's laptop. Soon for that.

MicroFour.StrataFrame.UI.Lcalization.MessageXmlPath = "../../messages"

But I do not understand the Output Path?

TIA.

No problem, let me be a bit clear:
In the Localication and Messaging Editor, when you create a project, it will ask you for the "Output Path" where you want the localization files to be created.  Here I enter the same folder ex: "E:\Visual Studio 2008 Projects\StrataFrame\Card Tracking System Projects\CardTrackingSystem.NET\Localization Files" as I used in my VS project.  This way, when I modify my messages in the Localization and Messaging Editor, and then then click the "Generate XML" button, the files will be where expected by my VS proeject, so I don't have to manually copy those files over, or worse, forget to copy them until the customer call reporting the error w00t

OK I do understand that. But, does that not mean you have to ReCreate all your messages from project to project? If your messages are pretty much the same from project to project how do you reuse the XML or Messages?

Thanks for the help.

Hi Terry,

define all common messages and texts in the Common repository, in the Messaging Editor. And in the settings of the Messaging project, check "Include Common Repository". Common messages will be saved in the xml file of the project.

Oh, so much to learn and so little time. I am just starting to use the Messaging system. Is there a way to use the xml that I have at this point and make it the common repository?

TIA.
