This is beyond me:
I'm using VB Resource Editor to create two string tables for my app. One (the first column) is Danish (Dansk), which is the language of my Windows 95, the other column is named "Neutral" having English strings. The idea being that when run on a non-Danish Win95 version the English string table would be used. This is how I read the documentation for the Resource Editor.

So far so good. When I run the app in the VB5 design environment the Danish string table is used, no problem, but after compilation, when run from the EXE-file, the Neutral (English) string table appears! 

I don't get it.... Do you? In that case, thank you for an explanation! :-)
