Resource files are the way to implement different texts to appear on user interfaces. Look in help under resource files. These have been the way to internationalize at least since VB4 and are still the key through .NET

If you need someone else to translate your application for you, resource file isn't really convinience to do so. Normally I will put it in a .txt or .ini file. You can just send this file to someone who translate for you (.res file are encrypted andyou only see some strange character) .
