Multilanguage support?

[Guest]

I create first a form and set the labels and buttons with Russian language.
Then I put following properties on the form:

Language = English
Localizable = True

Now I put the labels and buttons in English. In this moment, I have two
resource files: one for Russian (MyForm.resx) and one for English
(MyForm.en.resx).
If I start my application now, everything will showing on Russian. This is
good so.
And if I want to change the language, I try to do this:
I set CurrentCulture and CurrentUICulture in the New() prozedure of my form
to English,

Public Sub New()
' Set the culture and UI culture before
' the call to InitializeComponent.
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = New
System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en-US")
System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = New
System.Globalization.CultureInfo("en")

' This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
InitializeComponent()

' Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call.

End Sub


But it does not work! What do I make wrong?

How can I change the default language of the application?
Is that possibly at the runtime or only by starting of the application?


Thanks for info

hi Kovac
try putting your code in the Form Load instead of the New

also check out this link - read the bit about the MUI - that may be of help
too
