Using several languages/charset in one program

[Guest_imported]

Hi,

Can you help me how we can use several languages/charset in one program. We need to show on ons page/form Russian, Greek, Turkish, Thais, English and German.
One langauge at the time is not te problem, the problem is to use te languages together.

Thanks for helping us.
Michael

Hi,

The solution I've seen is to make a database table that contains the text (for all the controls etc.) in differenct languages.
When the program starts (or when the user shift language), you look up the all the text in the database for the choosen language and loops through the recordset to set the text elements.

Using a string resource table from the resource editor is the more traditional approach...

I agree with using string table in a resource file
You can add all your different langs and just call the stings as needed
