With GUI controls to localize the language it needs only to set Form->Localizable to true and selecting any specific language will enable us to edit GUI controls Text properties.
The corresponding satellite assemblies are created automatically and placed into say es-SP or de-AU folders.
How to perform the same with string resources? that these ones will be put inside those already compiled satellites.
MSDN help relates only manual creation of such resources with al.exe tool and generating say MyApp.resources.dll from the scratch.
It will give us 2 MyApp.resources.dll files, one from al.exe and the other from all GUI localized forms.
There should be the same way to allow to add to the project such string resources for every culture we are targeting without al.exe usage?

>>MessageBox.Show(Resource.MyText);
What is the namespace for Resource?
I need satellite assemblies in the application. Once you decided to add another culture say ES you simply add new directory to your already installed software, so there is not need to reinstall it

right, it is there. but it is Resources internal class. And it is in namespace MyProject.Properties;
1) I've got Form1.es.resx for spanish Form1 localization. The MyProject.resources.dll is generated automatically under bin\es folder
2) How to add string based resource to that localization?
Which file I need to add and add to that spanish localization?

I understood to add Resourses.es.resx file and add strings to it, then read them from Resourses internal class.
But will they be put into corresponding ES folder MyApplication.Resources.dll upon compilation?
I need a model that once the application is compiled, adding new cultures will not need to recompile the application just add a new folder say DE, IT, etc...

Yes that worked!
So VS put the Resourses.es.resx into MyApplication.Resourses.dll under ES folder in bin directory
If I will need to add more cultures later (DE, IT, etc...) will it be sufficient just to compile those MyApplication.Resourses.dll files under new DE, IT folders and just copy them to the already installed application with one additional ES culture?

When localizing Win forms apps you would better use satellite assemblies.[^]They are used for localizing most of MS products like Silverlight.

I'm already using them (automatically generated with Forms GUIs)
Let's see if that link solves on my task on how to add strings resources to already generated Forms GUI resx

1) As I enabled localization and specified say GUI elements titles for ES langage, in bin folder, ES will be generated automatically, and satellite will be placed with GUI controls localization
2) I need to add custom strings as in the link you sent me to the same satellite
Have you tried that link yourself? If I generate those strings and build the satellite with strings, it will beb overwritten with GUI elements satellite.

Of course yes.
In order to put satellite assemblies to work for you first need to ensure that System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture matches to the spanish culture.According to the msdn this property is determinated with calling GetUserDefaultUILanguage from the Windows API.The UI language is the language used for all UI elements of the OS.The System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture property is the default processes and threads culture.You can easy set it from the control panel/regional options. 
To test your spanish translation just set System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture to spanish and don't worry to mush about default behavour of this property-it just depends on the user settings.

Hi,
I have thread which runs in a separate class and I wanted to modify the form controls from my thread class.
I saw lots of articles describing cross threading, but all are having the thread in the same class.
It would be very very helpful to me, if somebody can help me to solve this issue.
Thanks a lot in advance,
Shaheer

Use BeginInvoke and Endinvoke function

Good reference. I always use the self-marhsalling approach for any event handler that does not come in from MY event handlers as they may be running on an alternate thread. I much prefer BeginInvoke to Invoke to avoid blocking issues -- IMHO, BeginInvoke should be the default pattern unless there is reason to block the caller or there is some other reason why the calls need to be syncronized. Typical MVC scenarios don't require such coordination, an event happens, the UI handles it by posting a message to itself, and when it gets context, it updates itself.

I don't agree. When SetText() is the method to set a Control's Text property, and you call it from the main thread, it does not invoke a thing, and runs synchronously. Calling it from another thread should not behave differently. If synchronous operation is not guaranteed, then call it SetTextSynchronouslyOrAsynchronously!

Delegating towards the main thread should never take long as in a well designed app the GUI is always responsive, hence the main thread itself basically does not block.

Sometimes you WANT your background thread to update a GUI object, and you KNOW there won't be any race condition. .NET has a convenient way of disabling cross-thread checking for a given class:
Label.CheckForIllegalCrossThreadCalls = false;
This disables the annoying cross-thread complaints from .NET (in this case for Label objects) when you know there won't be any conflicts.

... and wait for the app to break later long after you've finished it and can't work out why - It's easy enough to handle it the correct way so I see no point in taking this risk.
