multilingual applications
-
Dear all, i have developed a multilingual application using C#.NET in VS.NET 2003. Here i am using the resource files to get the required data based on the selected Culture. The display details are perfect for labels, buttons, richtext boxes etc... But, in the text boxes, messages boxes, Display name of the form & menu names only squares are displayed for some special characters based on the selected culture. Did anyone face the same problem. Kindly guide me to achieve the same so that i can display the details based on the selected languages/cultures in all the controls Best regards, Abhilash

thanks for ur suggestion.. but how to check it? & is it possible to make textbox, messagebox & menu items to support unicode? a per my observation, they are acting as notepad. not supporting rich text. i copied the same special chaacters in txt & rtf files. In rtf file, the characters are displayed pefectly. But, in txt file, they are displayed as squares, same as in textbox, messagebox & menu items.

Cope the text into Notepad - find a font that does display them. Obviously I assume you HAVE installed asian/script font support - and rebootet the system. People tend to skip the reboot because for exampel IE does not seem to need it - but WinFrom applications requires it. Once you have a font name, try setting that on your controls (it really should not be needed on the messagebox (nor is there an easy way to do it), unless someone has overridded the default font setup to a font without support.
