>>Our Fox applications are Codebook-based. They are used for financial analysis, primarily by hospitals. You can analyze your costs against reimbursements from the government or insurance carriers or against "norms", which are averages. These norms can be for a the entire country or for a particular state or for hospitals of a similar size, etc. Of the Fox products, some have been internationalized using Steven Blacks INTL toolkit and are available in selected countries (I don't work on the international team, so I can't tell you what those countries are). We use Crystal Reports and Graphics Workstation for reporting and graphing.

>I also have an English/Spanish app using INTL. I would be interested to hear how your INTL team handled forms. Using INTL to translate strings on the fly is one thing, but rearranging objects on forms is quite another. I started out keeping 2 sets of forms because the object positions were just to drastically different. Then I had a brain storm, and I only need 1 set of forms regardless of the language, and all translation occurs at runtime.


Some of the forms have been subclassed for each language. In other cases, enough space has been left and buttons sized so that the text will fit.
