How can I create and/or maintenance a .rc file? I have an application that
internationalized. BCB has generated some files that have ".rc" extension in
some folders that named as abbreviation of languages (for example: ENG for
english). But in the files, there is a sentence like this:

/*ITE: Do not edit. This file is machine generated by the Resource DLL
Wizard. */

I want to use some values (for example a message text) from String Tables
which translated to all languages my application supports. For example:

ID: IDS_ERROR_MESSAGE
English: "Division by zero"
German: "Div. mit zero"

The code in my application must be like this:

   ShowMessage(......IDS_ERROR_MESSAGE.......);

and if current language is English, "Division by zero" text must appear. If
current language is German then "Div. mit zero" text must appear.

What must I do? How can I create a string table?

Thanks,
Baris
