I am working on a project that will eventually need to be translated into 
(possibly) multiple languages.  I created an .RC/.H file pair for string 
resources and added it to my project.  Using LoadStr(), everything seemed to 
work.  I did notice that I was getting the following messages (one for each 
string resource) after building:
[Linker Warning] Duplicate string:  ID [#]; File [path/project.RES] string 
kept: [string]; File [path/my file.RES] resource discarded: string: [string]

The discarded and kept strings were identical, so no problem.  But now I 
have made changes to my RC file.  The new strings are getting discarded. 
Just using Notepad, I can see that somehow the original string resources got 
into my project .RES file.  How do I get them out of there, or how do I get 
them updated?  What can I do to get rid of the Duplicate string warning?

I'm using BCB 5, Update Pack 1.

Thanks,
Michelle
