Crystal in English and towords in spanish

[dfbonilla]

Hi all. We always need these Crystal 8.5 and XI English versions to do towords to Spanish. Is there any DLL I can replace so it always happens in Spanish? Does Crystal sell something like a multi-language version? We are currently working in 8.5 moving to XI.
Thanks in advance.

Tou could write your own Crystal formula, lots of work.

Or you could write a DLL in the Crystal UFL (User Defined Functions) format:

Or you might try replacing the Spanish DLL, I'd contact Crystal as I've never tried it.

I'm currently working with Saba and it uses UFL with various calls to get the various text in other languages, handle fonts, etc from a text file which is "localized" for the appropriate area.

I don't really want to write functions in crystal. Replacing the spanish DLL sounds perfect but where is it, what is the name? we have crtowords_en.dll but crtowords_es.dll doesn't exist. It complies with licensing agreement? or they want us to buy an spanish version?. We decided English vesion to comply with standars but somehow business Objects as anyone else should start adding multi-Language functionallity to its software, embedded, plug and play, independant of the progamming version. I should contact them but is normally hard to get a response.
Thank you for your response.
