>>Hi John,
>>
>>I'm not "translating", rather writing a set of routines to be called from an app to perform the translation, based on tables (dbfs). The actual translation (tables) will be filled by you, in a language you choose.
>>
>>As an example, bellow is the translation table for forms:
>>
>>    Create Table (SetLanguage_Forms) Free ;
>>           (                            ;
>>             ObjectKey    C (120),      ;   &&  Object Reference: 'frmFollowMain.grdMyGrid.Column1.Header1'
>>             Class        C ( 20),      ;   &&  Object Class:     'form', 'commandbutton', ...
>>             Property     C ( 15),      ;   &&  Object Property:  'Caption', 'ToolTipText'
>>                                        ;
>>             Portuguese   M      ,      ;   &&  Object Property Value in Portuguese
>>             English      M      ,      ;   &&  Object Property Value in English
>>             Spanish      M      ,      ;   &&  Object Property Value in Spanish
>>             French       M      ,      ;   &&  Object Property Value in French
>>             German       M             ;   &&  Object Property Value in German
>>           )
>>
>>    Index On ObjectKey + Property  Tag ObjectKey
>>
>>This initialization code must be put in the beginning of the "main" program of the app:
>>
>> SetLanguageInitialize ("C:\Pointer\FoxProgs\SetLanguage\dbfs", "Test")
>>
>>And following is the invocation of the form translate routine (in a form's Init method):
>>
>>        Procedure Init
>>*                 ----
>>                  SetFormLanguage (This, "English")
>>        EndProc
>>
>>I'm in the very beginning of this work, just geting those issues that should be addressed, while writing some code to experiment.
>>
>>If you (or anyone else) still have interest maybe we can share some ideas.
>>
>>Fernando
>>
>>>What are you translating to??????? I'd be very interested.
>>>John
