Hi all.
Msgbox ("",VbYesNo) shows 'Yes' and 'No' button.

If this code is running on Germany Office on Germany Windows,
the message will be 'Ja' and 'Nein'.

What determines the language? Office Edition ? or Windows Edition?
(If I change my machine's system locale and user locale to Germany,
the message is still english?)

Can I change the language other than English by changing something through
the Control Panel?

In the Control Panel for Regional and Language settings, there is an option
for Language. However, in my case it is limited to Frech Canadian as an
alternative. If I want more I suppose it would require downloading from
Microsoft. I have never checked it out, but it seems reasonable, since I
know they have several language versions of the Office suite, which would
include Excel. There is an add option button on the dialog box, so there
must be something to add.

Thank you for your reply , JLGWhiz.

It seems APPLICATION.International(xlCountryCode) determines that.
This must mean that I can't change the language without installing another
languaguage version of Excel.
