multi-language multilanguage

[dan37_123]

HI,

I need to create three setup types; ENGLISH, GERMAN AND ITALIAN.

when the uses chooses German, the setup factory installation routine should switch to German, smiliarly for other languages if selected.

I tried, but no success. I would apprecitate your replies.

thanks
daniel

Re: multi-language multilanguage

Your first screen must be a radio buttons screen with these settings:

---------------8<----------------
Buttons:
value = 9, text = English
value = 7, text = German
value = 16, text = Italian

Store selected button's value in:
%SysLanguage%

Store selected button's index in:
%SysLanguageIndex%
---------------8<----------------

Now all other screens must be present in 3 versions (for each language one) where the screen condition is:

%SysLanguage% = 9 (english screens)
%SysLanguage% = 7 (german screens)
%SysLanguage% = 16 (italian screen)

Note you must also localize packages in case you are using any. Use %SysLanguage% also as condition to install the app. language specific files and icons.

Hope this points you in the right direction

thanks a lot for the reply. I tried using the installshield, but i found it has plenty of bugs in this compiler and the code is rather messy.

In my opinion, i think SF is kool.

May i ask you some more questions. I am a completely new to this sf. Can i use auto play in conjuction with sf to make the install routine a multimedia enrichment. Can i have sequential exe file execution
