Hi,

If you are referring to the "YES", "NO" buttons that are displayed on the "YES/NO Message Box" action dialog, then no I'm sorry you cannot change the language text on them to a specific language. That dialog is a Windows dialog with Windows buttons, so the text for YES, NO will be displayed in whatever the user's system language is set to.

Is this what you were referring to?

The language of standard Windows dialog boxes will appear in the language of the operating system. So, for example, if you are running a Malay version of Windows, then standard Windows buttons like OK, Cancel, Yes, No etc will appear in the language of the O/S. It should be quite seemless for the end user, and certainly what they would expect to see.

I don’t think it is wise to have ”own message boxes” within Setup Factory. This will increase the overhead of Setupe.exe. Most programmers take advantage of the Windows API. And I can’t see this is a real problem. Personally, as a Norwegian, I prefer to have the English-US version of Windows. I’m well acquainted with buttons with “Yes/No/Cancel”.

I rarely use message boxes in my final install product. During the design phase it is of great help to use message boxes to test the content of variables and so on, but in the final install I use the standard SUF screens – with conditions as needed.
