The subject says it all! I need to write a fairly hewfy web app that supports 10 langauges. In a similar ASP classic app, I have the data stored in the database, which works OK...

The question is, should I stick with the database approcah or use the System.Resources namespace to load the strings from a resource file...

The resouce file sounds nice, but with 8000 strings per language I am worried that this approach will slow the app down significantly.

Any ideas welcome....
