I'd like to second Jim's thought. Belonging to the list, even for those of us that don't have a whole bunch to contribute, is definitely an extremely valuable source of information. Just watching/reading some of the discussions or searching for that little obscure such and such provides other viewpoints, approaches and contexts that are so helpful.

I think we've all learned over the years that there is no one size fits all approach, and as a result the value of belonging to this list is outstanding.

And I could probably write a piece of code that would update the tags from the language tables so I could keep the tables as an easy way to create and edit the translations. Now THAT has possibilities.

That might be a good solution - why didn't I think of that! Something like: Label1.tag = "Good Morning+God morgen+Bonjour+Guten Morgen+早安+Доброе утро" The set a global var to position-indicate the substring with the + as the delimiter (change delimiter to whatever). IE, 0=English, 1=Danish, 2=French, 3=German, 4=Chinese, 5=Russian. When the form loads cycle through the label.type controls and set the caption equal to the substring pulled from the TAG. Minimal programming. Minimum overheads. No disk accessing. No bunch of stuff held in memory. Very fast (I would guess). Brilliant - Horses for courses, but this could well work! Now then JC - Just let me move to the other side of the room behind the sofa. OK, I am hiding and protected. You can reply now! Max Ps.
