Solution 1

You need to have a string text in the language resource file.
Then display that text in the your message box.

I can localize the string of messagebox by putting it in the resouce file added in the application.But cant i add the string in the resource file generated for the form and then manipulate it because i want to keep all the form speecific strings in the form resource file that is generated.
