Newbie - a few questions
Posted: Tue Apr 05, 2005 10:13 pm
Hi,
I'm currently evaluating TsiLang with Delphi 7 Pro, and must say I'm very impressed with what I've seen so far.
A couple of things to clarify if I may.
I have an Office add-in project which currently has all componets using Widestrings (from ElPack, EDOS now distributed by LMD). This was done because data pulled from the client apps is in widestring format.
Am I right in assuming that I could leave the components that are filled with data by the client (using the users locale language), but should change labels, buttons and anything I want translated to that language to standard Delphi components to get the best results from TsiLang?
This would not be a problem using GExperts.
I understand that I can change the charset easily to make the translation if I use Arial unicode MS font on the parent form and leave the Delphi components Parent font property set to true. Then I only have to code one change of charset and it will cascade through to the Delphi components
Is there a way to determine what the users locale language is or even better the currently used system font, and set the other components to a suitable font and charset?
TIA Nick
