    Question

    Hi,

    I want to create a multi-languagel app, but I don't want to use resource files. I think about a file with the structure of an INI-file, but I don't know how to implement it.

    Can anyone help me?

    Thumbs down

    Only I can translate the program, and not other people, by changing a language file. Also, I live in Holland and I use as system language Nederlands (Standaard) but in Belgium they also speak Dutch and they chose Nederlands (Belgisch). If my program then wants to select a language they get the default, and I the one I want, so if I want to translate to English I have to make almost 30 different string tables with all the same language.
