How can one change system messages such as the SAVEWARN message ("Would you like to save changes to the entry?")? I'd like to have Norwegian versions of those messages.

Oystein,
These can be changed in SYSPROG using the UI designer. Alternatively, you can copy these into a local application and change them there.

Don,
Curious. In PS_Equates the messages have numbers, so I expected something like an FS errors row with all the numbers + messages, or a table with numeric keys.
But thanks!

Don,
Btw - this means one cannot implement one's own additional system messages, right? What I was thinking of was parallel sets for two languages.

Check out SysMsg at http://www.sprezzatura.com/senl/volume1/v1i10.htm#_Toc447428242. For some reason our site index is not returning this - I'll respider the site.

Sprezz,
Con: To implement it I must have a user event on each and every table-bound window.
Pro: It's easy to set language on a window by window basis by having different versions of the function for different windows. I can even have full freedom by using a function able to display messages in all the languages I need, and let it check a global flag that tells the function which language to choose.

Oystein,
Sysmsg works fine as a promoted event without need for a Return 1 in every window. Con removed

We've had problems with the SYSMSG event. It doesn't seem to trap everything so we've had to abandon it as a catch all for this type of solution.

May I bother you with this problem again?
Do you remember if there were certain messages that failed, or particular circumstances under which some messages failed, or no obvious pattern to the failures?
If certain messages fail, I can find out which. Some messages are more important than others. I don't need localized versions of the more exotic ones.
I don't want you to put a lot of effort in it - please just tell me if and what you remember.

Oystein,
We only attempted to use SYSMSG at the time to trap validation error messages. I don't think we did much more than that because we didn't need to. So I wouldn't be surprised if it worked for other messages.

Don,
I seem to have been able to capture validation messages OK. From what you say there's hope for the rest. Thanks.
