Localization/Language implementation??

Any ideas on what the best way to implement localization (language) - I am thinking of using an XML file for internal labels, loading an array at startup - help files handled as individual, by language - picked by name (helpENG.chm etc)

Is there a better way?? or is this the best way... Is making multiple versions a better idea??? (obviously individual versions will reduce resource demands)

Cheers

Yes there is a better way.
Use a resource file for keeping the strings (error strings etc.) and then use a resource manager to get the value for the selected language.
Also alter the resource files for specific languages and then use resgen.exe to translate
the labels on forms etc.

.NET offers many things for helping you with localization.

great - thanks - I will do more reading
