Revisiting: Translating Dynamics GP
David Musgrave
Time for revisiting another article, in fact an entire series of articles.

Russian Version of Microsoft Dynamics GP

I knew a little bit about his project as we had discussed it and other issues involving translation when I wrote the Translating Dexterity Applications Series of blog posts.

Arabic Version of Microsoft Dynamics GP
David Musgrave
One of our community's MVP, Mohammad Daoud, is giving us a preview of the Arabic version of Microsoft Dynamics GP he has created. He has used Modifier and Report Writer to update all the messages and strings in the dictionaries, which leaves the original application dictionaries unchanged. While...

Handling Translation when Customizing with VBA
David Musgrave
From the Translating Dexterity Applications Series . The final topic in the series is one that was added later after I was asked about how to handle translated applications when writing customizations. Most code would work fine as it is independent of the language. However, it is common in Visual...

How to Horizontally Flip the Windows
David Musgrave
From the Translating Dexterity Applications Series . So now we know how to translate the language, which is fine for a "western" language, but what about languages that are read from right to left rather than left to right; languages such as Hebrew and Arabic. One of the reasons that I decided...

Translating Dexterity Code
