Changing the language of resource items?

[nexius]

Hi

One of the projects that I'm working on uses another person's visual c++ project as a base, from which I've worked off of and added a lot to.

But this other person was german, so I spent awhile changing all the labels, titlebars, etc to english. I couldn't figure out how to change it so that message boxes supplied by the MFC framework used english too... So I started another new project and just copied-and-pasted the parts of the resource file (*.rc) that referred to the language...

This worked, but now every time I add a control to the dialog box, it changes the resource file back to german!

Could really use some help! Thanks!

Thanks for your reply.

I tried reading through the source you have on your page.. But to be honest I have no idea what to do with it.

Isn't there just some setting I can change to make all windows-created message boxes english rather than german?

Sorry I didn't realize you had a word document that came along with it...
I'm reading through it now

Alright I got it.

Thanks again
