Greetings all,

I'm hoping that somebody will actually read this because at the moment there 
are exactly ZERO postings here.  Here goes,

I have a large project in BCB6 that needs to be translated.  I understand 
the process and what is involved but I'm stuck on how to deal with resource 
strings.  So I have some text that is dynamically loaded at runtime using 
LoadStr from the .res file associated with my project.

When I add a language then BCB creates all the resource DLL for the screens 
but doesn't seem to include resource strings.  I understand that the 
translation process creates a resource DLL for each language but how do I 
ask it to include strings from my "English" .res file?

Is this possible?  Am I missing a step somewhere?

Many thanks,

Andy
