Use the Visual Studio IDE For My Resources or will i use the resgen, al.exe, etc.

i was reading this,
http://www.ondotnet.com/pub/a/dotnet/2002/10/14/local2.htm

i was able to create a simple resource files using only Visual Studio IDE,
I dont follow why i should use resgen, al.exe and ildasm.exe

Will someone please explain it to me why should i do this?
when should i use it?
im worried about the deployement of our project.

we are using visual sourcesafe and im worried if i shared the resource with my employees,
they will need to go through all this command line process.
