Is there any free resource editor to edit compiled .net managed assemblies?

One of my clients requested to edit texts on windows forms controls of their app. I put all texts(strings) in a separate resource file. I can edit them in Visual studio but for the client to edit them, I guess they must be able to decompile the dll and edit resulted rc files and then compile them back again which I am not going to suggest cause it's too much hassle.

I was wondering if any resource file editor exists that can do it automatically.

I haven't found an editor for .NET assemblies, but this project is a very nice viewer of all the info found inside the assembly.

A resource editor that you can try is http://www.zeta-resource-editor.com/ This is used mostly for multi language resources but its free and lets you edit the resource files, you would just have to complie the resource afterwards
