Have you actually done this?

We tried these two alternatives to no avail.

1. Defined a table with a primary key column (1 row for each string/label to be translated), and then a column for each language. This didn't work as we couldn't find a way to filter that data to be displayed to just the desired translated text. We couldn't find a lookup function and it is not possible to use a select statement inside a formula. The only way we did find using this approach was to load a table for each string to be translated... not really a workable solution.

2. OK, so faced with the above problem, we created a table that has a column for each string to be translated, and a row for each language. This works if you have a few strings to be translated, but even before you hit the maximum number of columns allowed, maintenance increases exponentially with each addition string.

Please enlighten me!
