Public Property ResXKey As String
C#
public string ResXKey { get; set; }
Visual C++
public:
property String^ ResXKey {
	String^ get ();
	void set (String^ value);
}

Property Value

The ResX key. This must be the name of the .resx file with no file extensions followed by \data name. For example, if an object with the data name My Sequence is defined in the .resx file My_ResX.en.resx, the ResX key for that object is:

My_ResX\My Sequence

Remarks

Note:

For a node to receive context help from a .resx file, the file must exist in the following location: <Application Data>\User Interface\ResX\en

.resx files are useful if you want to store the context help strings for a real-time sequence in a separate place from the code itself. For example, if you have a designated technical writer, you can give that person one file to work in instead of all the code for your real-time sequence.
