 FAQ:
   - How do I add, change, or remove a string?
       Just update this file.

s/CONT/CONTINUE/  As a rule, avoid abbreviations (except for a few very common
unambiguous abbreviations for long words, e.g. pref instead of preferences)

[newt (away), 2016/02/25 06:25:53]

"... for a button to continue to the next screen"

(It's important to mention "button" so translators know this is an action, not a
description or label)

[PEConn, 2016/02/25 14:19:52]

So this is used in the java code as R.string.cont and since continue is a
keyword, R.string.continue doesn't work.

[PEConn, 2016/02/25 14:19:52]

Done.

Store this constant in Java. (Unless this needs to be used from a resource file)

It's better not to store string constants in grd files unless it's necessary.
Loading resources is slower than accessing a string constant, resources are
global while constants can have limited scope, and it's just more indirection
and code.

[PEConn, 2016/02/25 14:19:52]

I'm removing this, as well as IDS_SYNC_KEEP_EXISTING_DATA_SEPARATE_VALUE below
(which I can't find mentioned anywhere else in the code).
