Hello All,

I have already done localization in ASP.Net application which was small application.

But now I have to do localization, in Win Form Application which is very Huge.

My question is , Do I need to add different language's resource file for each form, or there is some other simplest way ?

Please provide some good links if any one can.

Thanks.

You need to download each and every resource file.

However, what you can do is download only those resource files that are required at the client. That may help load your application faster.
