German in heading of dialog boxes

[phil22046]

I am converting from VFP 8 to VFP 9 and using XP professional. On my test machine I only have VFP 9 runtime files, not the whole development system.

When I execute the following code trying to get a Save as Dialog box, the "Save as" is displayed in German as "Speichern unter".

cSaveto = putfile("Name:",cExportFileName,"CSV")

I checked the regional settings, and English is the language the computer is set for.

So I am stumped. I tested this software on the test machine in VFP 8, this didn't happen. However VFP 8 Development was installed. This time the test machine only has the VFP 9 runtime files.

Sounds like your using the German resource file (vfp9rdeu.dll) rather than the English VFP9RENU.DLL.

You could try searching for the German DLL and perhaps delete it (or, better, rename it). You might also need to de-register it, but I'm not sure.
