Dr. Dan,

>Any thoughts on how to handle comboboxes that the users can translate into different languages like forms, menus etc.? Suppose you have a combobox that has 3 fixed options - Add, Change & Delete. Normally we have these choices in a look up type table that is not language driven.

You could add a "language" field to the table that stores a foreign key pointer to the Lang table. You could then add a "vp_ilanguage" parameter to your view that filters the table based on the specified language. You can determine the "current" language by calling the Language Manager's GetCurrentLanguage() method...then you can store this value in the view parameter.
