Hi all,
I've found a very annoying bug in VS.NET 2003 Ent. Arch running on a XP pro
SP2. In a web project, I was using the .RES files associated to each page to
store string resources, when I've started noticing that the resources I was
adding were lost at some point. After a quick investigation, I've found that
the IDE was truncating the .res file every time a control was added or
deleted in the associated page. The .res file was back to its original
content, with the 3 resources that are usually there when VS creates it:
anything I've added afterwards was lost.
I've researched for information across the internet without finding any
information.
The only workaround I've found is to edit the .res file using an external
editor that notifies me of any change made to the file by other programs, so
I can save the file again if VS destroys it!
Anybody has ever experienced this before?

Sorry for the mistake: of course by "res files" I mean "resx files"!
