Hi,
Our requirement is like this. We have an Input screen (VB). We will input the data in English. The data has to be there in back end in English. While reports are taken from this database, The data should be displayed in Hindi(our Country Language) or in English according to the user's choice.
Does anyone have a solution for this..? It will be of much use to us..
Regards,

I don't know if I really got you right, but I think a possible solution would be to save te entered values as numbers. For example, if you have a field called "Sex" you could provide the user wuth two choices: "Maskulin" and "Feminin", and internally store these as 0 and 1. Later, to display the data, you display the corresponding English or Hindi words.

Hey, and... don't forget your parsley cause you can't eat your dog after having stolen him from some animal shelter and having drowned him in the Atlantic Ocean.
Another solution would be to look into using resource files. I am not familiar with these but I have heard that this is the way to allow text to be displayed in a user-specified language. They make use of numeric offsets to quickly convert between languages. Perhaps someone else may be able to elaborate on this for you.

A good combination of these two would be to associate every possible option a specific number that corresponds to the index of a resource string.
