When creating Windows application, there are several way to use resource
files. Now, I'm very confuse about .resx file in each form and .resx file in
Properties folder in the project. If I have a message text, where is the best
place I put my message text? Do anyone know exactly or just best practice
about this issue? I just want to know idea of others people who also use
.resx files in Visual Studio 2005.

Thank you,

I typically place message text in the default RESX file, under the
Properties folder. The RESX file associated with each form is controlled by
the Windows Forms Designer, so any manual changes you make to those files
are overwritten on the next change in the designer.
