what is the use of the resx file? 2

[ietprofessional]

I can't find much about the resx files. What is the function of these files?

These are resource files. If you're doing globalization and localization, that's where you'd store any text strings and icons, bitmaps, etc. that your program uses. In an Internationalization (I18N) scenario, you would have resource-only DLLs, each of which contains the resources for one locale.
