Thanks Rocky. Do you know how to change the keyboard to Spanish?

As you describe it, I don't think you have to do anything to your program. What goes into the two memo fields is up to the user. So it's transparent to your program what they're putting in there. What kind of problems are you anticipating? The only thing I can think of that might be a convenience for the user is, when the Spanish memo field gets the focus, you change the keyboard to Spanish so they get the accents and tilde - stuff specific to the SPanish language keyboard. When it loses the focus, change the keyboard back to English.

One will store only English text, and the other will store only Spanish text. There is no need to mix languages in either memo field. I have never worked with two languages before. Has anyone else done this? Any hints, tips or snags to be avoided?
