How can i switch the UI between different languages, for example german, english or french?
I think, the stringtable in VC isnīt the best way,
because i like to change every static text item in
the application. I donīt want compile the applications for different languages!!

Please excuse my bad englisch.

The string table is the way to go. Don't put any strings within your application.

There is an article within DevStudio help that explains how to create a 'resource only' DLL. By doing it this way, then you'd just need to rebuild this resource DLL for each of the languages.
