Hi Friedrich,
What is the way to modify text/language resources and make them update
in all my install scripts? I use a lot of compiler variables to set
things up and I'm trying to get rid of all static text that I need to
edit in the various scripts I use. For example: I want to change the
"Welcome" dialog text and I want use the same text in all my installs.
How can I accomplish that without editing the text in each of my scripts?
Best regards,

Text Resources for your installs are stored in your project files (based on
the language modules in Tools | Options | Languages).
In theory, you have to change the text in the language module(s) and then,
in your project, select:
Project | Refresh Text Resources
This "should" refresh all text resources.

This is a bit of a problem, because the .lng files are installed under
Program Files and when I try to access them inside SB, SB tells me it
can't open them because they need write access. I copied one and was
able to access it, but it then appears in the language list in the same
way as the original (i.e. English (US) showed up twice)

So this would have to be done every time any of the resources change in
all the installs that use them?
I'll keep poking at this and see what I find out.

Just right-click the SB Shortcut and start it with administrator privileges.

Yes, that is correct. Text resources are stored per project.
