Whenever the setText/setTitle member function is called, an application level (uApp) event is triggered: EVENT userTranslateText( text CHAR(*)) RETURNING CHAR(*) It is necessary to provide a handler for this event to provide the translation functionality that is appropriate for your application. handle uApp::getUApp().userTranslateText with myTranslator Then code your translate handler as you please: huge CASE, read from Message File, read from Database File. A sample handler, u_uponTranslateText, is found in uapp.4gl. Catalin >Do i have to do it for each object or i call my translation function >once in the begining ? > Just once and in one place.
