Multiple Languages(English, French) on ASP.NET Page

I was just wondering what is the best way to handle multiple languages on a web page? Should I create an event in the load where I change the labels of all my controls to the approrpiate language text, or is there a better way? I am using .NET framework, thanks.

For ASP.NET, use Resource files. This will let you provide multilingual functionality and you can add translations without needing to recompile.

You will want to look at the section of the MSDN documentation that deals with localization and globalization of ASP.NET apps:
