    Using resource files in VBA [RESOLVED]

    Until now I never had to deal with multiple languages. Anyway, here goes my question.

    I already read that in VB it is possible to use resource files created with the resource editor add-in. Storing pictures, icons, text,...

    Does something similar exist for the VBA-environment? Or do I have to create resource files in VisualStudio and use them in my VBA-project? If so, how do I refer to those resource files using VBA-code? I did not find a LoadRes function in VBA.

    A search in the VBA forum did not turn anything up about this subject.

    Maybe in VBA it is not possible ?

    Perhaps nobody uses resource files in VBA solutions ?

    I know I can use textfiles that contain strings,... and read from them when my VBA-solution is loaded.

    I'm now looking if there's a way using API call's.

    Unless anyone has a better solution for builing multi-language support, I will use textfiles.

    Any suggestions are welcome.
