Have you ever created a foreign
language version of your application.
but found that some
strings were still displayed in the original language, because
these strings were read from a database? If so, the Multi-Language
Database may solve your problem.
Multi-Language Database adds support for multiple languages
to your database, without making any changes to the existing
tables. It does so, by adding four additional tables which
store information about the fields to be translated and
store the actual texts in multiple languages.
You can use the foreign language texts either by copying
the texts in a specific language into your original database
tables or by defining views to retrieve the texts from the
Multi Language Database tables.
