I don’t know. Maybe it’s just me. Every once in a while, when writing, I get lost in spelling out right the word(s) I am writing. My mind somehow blocks and doesn’t do what it normally does automatically. Just like this week, when I needed to translate some captions. More…
Recently I had to make sure that captions for both ENU and NLD were present throughout our solution. A job I have being doing many times over the past years and wrote some post about (you will find some here). One of the last tasks in this process deals with…
My exploratory code compare had for sure at least one goal: I had to check the issue I did report ages ago on NAV 2009 R2. You recall? Some spot checking on the tables listed in my post showed me the translation error made in R2 on the term No….
As with Forms, an essential part of the Pages we build are the informational labels displayed. At MS we tend to call them in short UI strings. For the majority of pages these labels, including their (textual) content, are inherited from the table fields they are bounded to. However some parts of a…
With this BaIS sequel I am going to create a collection of findings and thoughts on the various things we are coming across within Imtech ICT during our quest in building international solutions.

Did you ever use the ObjectTime tool? Or what I actually wanted to ask is: ever heard of the ObjectTime tool? Haven’t checked it for all versions but in general it is delivered as part of the UPGTK (i.e. Upgrade Toolkit) on the product CD/DVD: \..\UpgradeToolKit\Multilanguage Tools. It’s actually one…
Now you have selected a translation tool, how do you efficiently translate your application? Steps to Take Of course this depends on the way you have organized your development, but grosso modo I think it should be like this: Make sure your code (i.e. C/SIDE objects) comply to the following:…
Little over a year ago we had the need to partly translate the UI of a huge solution from our sister company from German to Dutch. Due to time constraints and my not-up-to-date knowledge about translation tools I searched for the Navision Localization Workbench (NLW), found it on mibuso, and…
