Question

User1172468142 posted

Let's say that I have two project, one of them is my web application and the other one is my LIB project. I have some Resource files as Language.en-US.resx Language.es.resx

In my web application, I have added this LIB project as reference. I have some usercontrols.

What I want is to use these LIB's resources file as usercontrols' controls' text.

Let's say that I have a button like

  <asp:Button ID="btnSearch" runat="server" OnClientClick="ClearDetails();return true;"
                    CssClass="button" Text="Search"  OnClick="ButtonClicked">

So how can I reflect the resources' file content to buttons' Text

Thanks a lot for reply...But my case is different...I think its vice versa...

As I know that I can use GlobalResources like Text="<%$ Resources:Language, Button1%>" in html side...but What if my resource is in another DLL...How can I use this notation...

Follow the usage of a custom expression builder in the article Extending the ASP.NET 2.0 Resource-Provider Model.  You can add you resx files to a common assembly project.  Make sure you set the resx file Access Modifier to Public.  This will cover what you are trying to do.
