Hi Gábor, Our product's installer originally suffered from the same problem as Lian - that the dialog text displayed in English on all systems. While researching the problem, I stumbled across the blog post that Blair mentions below, and that's what lead me to experiment with the summary information stream. We now use "0" in our product installer and have tested this successfully on English, Spanish, French, German and Japanese, on Windows 2003 and Windows 2008.
We did get one report of the "Cancel" button on the dialog still being displayed in English on a Japanese system, even though the rest of the text in the dialog was Japanese. I haven't bothered to investigate that one yet... Hope this helps, Mike -----Original Message----- From: Blair [mailto:os...@live.com] Sent: 16 September 2009 16:18 To: d...@tramontana.co.hu; 'General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.'

You will notice he refers to two places where language is identified in the MSI files, and where each of those two settings takes effect. -----Original Message----- From: DEÁK JAHN, Gábor [mailto:d...@tramontana.co.hu] Sent: Wednesday, September 16, 2009 5:45 AM To: General discussion for Windows Installer XML toolset.

If others could confirm that this is so across various Windows versions and Windows Installer versions, I'd add it to the tutorial. I only have English opsystems so I can't try this one myself...
