Philippe,

I'm glad you posted this message, though I don't have an answer for you I know that you can tell VFP which language resource file to use at start up with a switch at the command line. However I've never been able to do it according to the help files. I always receive a message telling me that the file is not valid. I was trying to use a Spanish VFP6RAPA.DLL with an VFP English version. I wonder if out there is an international version or if I'm missing something else.
