Hi Mark,

Your mileage will vary with INTL depending on how you are currently structured. INTL retrofits logically and straightforwardly into almost anything pre-existing, but if your code has many hard-coded strings, then it may take awhile to expunge them. For example, the line

WAIT WINDOW "Young man, give me that knife!"

...needs to br transformed -- no way to avoid it. It becomes either

WAIT WINDOW I( "Young man, give me that knife!") && I() function call

.. or ..

MsgSvc( "Crazed Teenager") && Indirection.

Here Crazed Teenager serves as a locator in a specification table for the message "Young man..."

Anyhow, two nice utilities are GOTCHAS.ZIP (audits your application for international bo-bos), and MSGSVC.ZIP (for table-driven messages) are in the public domain, and you can use them right now to put you in excellent shape for any future internationalization.

All that's in my website under "Downloads"....
