[AccessD] Find First in an Array?

True.  If I could get the users to put that language database somewhere
where the program could find it.  Have to keep in mind my users - low tech -
don't know a folder from their elbow - have to have foolproof install or I'm
on the phone trying to explain where the any key is.

So, even though from a technical standpoint, you're right about separating
the language db, from a Rolaids standpoint, I think I'd prefer to leave it
in the front end.

Hi Rocky

The language data could be held in a separate database, a resource database,
just like temp tables should be held in a separate (fourth) database.

Microsoft knows how to handle this in Visual Studio and .Net where you can
have languages, language versions (like French and Canadian French), and
even company or business versions of such a language version. For example, a
project may be labeled Project, Case, or Job in English UK for different
businesses like construction, law, and media. Very flexible and at least
backwards compatible with the frontend versions.

" I am not going to get into the "this is a local table so it goes in the
FE... oh damn, now I gotta go update the data in 5 different FEs".  BEs are
for data (in my world)."

In my case, where the 'data' is really static, and is needed by each user,
wouldn't the design be better with the language tables in the FE?
