Hello all,

I'm using Delphi 7 Enterprise (english version) and we wrote an
application using runtime packages (vcl etc.) for the german market
(no internationalization required). This means that all captions,
error messages etc. are in german.

The problem now is, that for example button captions in dialogs
created by MessageDlg function are in english (yes, no, cancel etc.).

What can I do to change all VCL generated messages, button
captions and error messages to german?

Thanks in advance for any tips,
Riccardo

PS: I know that files like vcl40.de were shipped with the
german version of Delphi 4 and you had to deploy these files with
the vcl runtime packages to obtain my desired result. But these
files are not shipped with the english version of Delphi 7.

Hi Riccardo,

I've solved this by using a routine which creates the message dialogs
"manually" using my strings for caption, buttons etc.Look at
CreateMessageDialog().

Hope this helps.
Best wishes,
Michael

PS: on the German keyboards we have STRG instead of CTRL and UMSCH instead
of SHIFT
