I forgot to mention that another alternative, instead of having the texts in a table (DBF), is to have them in text files, similar to INI files. My "backup" program shows you a way of reading variables from text files.

The advantage of a text file is that the end-user can easily translate it into additional languages. A disadvantage is that you don't have an organized structure (as in a DBF), so it may be more difficult to upgrade to a more recent version of your program (with more text variables).

You can also combine both, with a small utility program that converts from DBF to text and back. The end-user sees the text, you manage the DBF to facilitate upgrades.
