Hello Kevin,

DialogResult dr = mmAppDesktop.MessageBox.Show("Do you want to close the application?",
               this.Text, MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question), 
               MessageBoxDefaultButton.Button1);

gives buttons with text in english under a german XP Home. If you delete the last parameter:

DialogResult dr = mmAppDesktop.MessageBox.Show("Do you want to close the application?",
               this.Text, MessageBoxButtons.YesNo, MessageBoxIcon.Question);

the text of the buttons is in german as he should, under a german XP, right?

All other is working as expected, "Do you want..." gets translated correctly.

TIA and best regards,

Ralph
