Do I need the resx Designer.cs file?

Question

My company uses a combination of some database tables, a web page front end and an \"export\" application to handle our string resources in our web sites.

The export

Answer 1

I had a problem where VS 2010 would not regenerate the Designer.cs files, and couldn't find the solution elsewhere.

I was able to regenerate them though, without going to the command line.

To fix the issue in Visual Studio 2010 I did the following:

1. Deleted the Designer.cs file
2. Right clicked on the main resx file
3. Selected Run Custom Tool

That rebuilt the Designer.cs file.

Hope that might help someone else in the future..
