Perhaps "resourcestring" will help? I don't remember what version of Delphi they first appeared, but sounds like it would suite your needs.
>From the Delphi 2006 Help: Resource strings are stored as resources and linked into the executable or library so that they can be modified without recompiling the program. Resource strings are declared like other true constants, except that the word const is replaced by resourcestring. The expression to the right of the = symbol must be a constant expression and must return a string value. For example, resourcestring CreateError = 'Cannot create file %s'; OpenError = 'Cannot open file %s'; LineTooLong = 'Line too long'; ProductName = 'Borland Rocks'; SomeResourceString = SomeTrueConstant; David Cornelius Cornelius Concepts, Inc. http://corneliusconcepts.com Software Development, Databases, Websites ________________________________ From: Emmanuel Lamy [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, November 19, 2006 9:45 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [delphi-en] Compiled string values Hi everybody, Anyone out there knows about a TStrings component I can use to store updated string values in the compiled exe file, as opposed to saving the strings in an external file? Any techniques, or workaround will be appreciated. TIA. Emmanuel
