I just use one exe file for all languages, that contains all translations for all languages. Quote: Another question is about registry entries. Does each language version get a separate registry key? For example, "SoftwareMyAppEng" and so on. No. You should only translate the user interface - not the program behind it.

French would have delphi32.fr, Japanese would have delphi32.jp and so on. Leo, Just a question of interest: How are you (Borland) translating the resources? I don't think your are using something like the built in ITE, don't you? cu, Michael Back to top Michael Fritz Guest Posted: Mon Jul 28, 2003 6:40 am    Post subject: Re: I18N Conventions Quote: Are you kidding? Don't make me laugh. Sure However I would like to know anyway. It MUST be a better tool anyway. cu, Michael Back to top Maksym Markov Guest Posted: Tue Jul 29, 2003 11:50 am    Post subject: Re: I18N Conventions Our tool (Balmsoft Polyglot) uses external text files, so even end-user can translate application to their native language. -- Maksym Markov, MCSD http://components.balmsoft.com Quote: I am interested in learning what basic conventions other development shops use when creating multi-language versions of their applications. For example, if you had an application named: MYAPP.EXE, would you name it differently in other languages?
