Question

I have a ASP.NET website that references another project with contains as resx file. This file is currently set as an “Embedded Resource” and “Do not copy” to the output directory (although I can change these if need be).

My question is what do I need to do so that once the website has been deployed my coworkers in the Support Department can modify the resource strings?

For example, is there compile time options I can set on the resx file so that it is deployed in a human readable manner? Is there instead a tool they can use?

Answer 1

You can’t. Resx files are compiled into the assembly.

Here is some information.
