Hi,

I am using a multi language setup, I want the users to be able to pick the desired language from a drop box (ex. english, french...) and the setup language will change acordinly to the selection....
is it possible at all, or do i need to compile a setup for each language ?

Thanks.

First, make sure you read Chapter 7: Languages in the User's Guide. This chapter will give you insight into how SUF70 handles languages.

To actually let the user select the language, add a Combo Box screen to your installer that presents the available languages. Then use the action "Application.SetInstallLanguage" to set the install language appropriately. Of course, you will have to make sure to provide translated text for all supported languages.
