ASP.NET Return Server Native Language

[Dessip]

Hey,

I was wondering if there is a command to return the language that the
server is set up in, usering ASP.NET v1.1

Because if you put Label1.Text = DateTime.Now.ToLongDateString and the
server is in german it will return: Donnerstag, 15. Juni 2006
But if its in english then it will return: Tuesday, 15. June 2006

But i was wondering if there was a command to return what langage the
server is in. e.g. Engllish, French, German.

You don't need the language. What you need is the Current Culture.

CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.Name

You need to import the .Net Framework's System.Globalization class.

Sorry about this, but i have hit another problem

But i was wondering where does it gather the information from. Because
i thought that it was from Control Panel>Regional Options but they are
set to English(United Kingdom) and for the development im hosting the
IIS locally, but for CultureInfo.CurrentCulture.EnglishName Its
returning German(Switzerland) so i guess that its not gathering the
data from there. So do you know where it is gathering it from.

Thanks In Advance
