Anyone has suggestion for something that's better than Visual Studio default Resource string editor? Not looking for standalone Resx editor, just something that has better navigation between strings in Grid, better support for long strings, etc.

Thanks.

This tool ResEx from Dimitris Papadimitriou is awesome.
Features I love:

  1. Warns you if you are missing a {0} that is defined in the default resx file
  2. Translate side by side
  3. Warnings about shortcut characters

Have a look at TranSolution by Hexadigm Systems (www.hexadigm.com). It's a Visual Studio add-in that exports all strings from your app into one file for side-by-side translation (using a free program). You then use the add-in to import the strings back into your app. Has the same features mentioned above (traps missing {0}, etc.) and more.
