I have two problems with the Months translation.

1. I saw that the months are not in the Enumerations "to translate" list, why is that? I want to write the Gregorian names in Hebrew (not to use the Hebrew calander).

2. I wanted to translate the English name into Hebrew but using the Dictionary.xml is not working. This is my code line:

Cmonth = LanguageDictionary(Cmonth)

and it is not working while retrieving any value.


For example this is my line to retrieve the Hebrew value for "Apr":

<Apr T="אפריל">April</Apr>

GenoPro's calendar has support for 13 months, with the last month name Sol.  Of course, there is no direct mapping from a 12-month calendar to a 13-month calendar, however if you give a Hebrew name to the month of Sol, it should work.

I know that.

I already put my translation into the Dictionary.xml file. The problem is that when I generate my report there is an error that it can't find the translation. I guess that there is a problem with the format I wrote that disables the Report Generator option to translate the month int Hebrew. Is the line syntax (for April) I quoted in my previous post OK?

<Apr>אפריל</Apr>

Didn't work. I keep getting the: "LanguageDictionary.Lookup("Apr") failed!" error message.

You cannot do a LanguageDictionary.Lookup() to get the name of a month.  The Lookup() function will look in the section <ReportGenerator>.  If you want to see Hebrew month names, just generate a report with dates containing month names, and GenoPro will use whe month names specified in the section <DateFormatting>.

That was my mistake. The months translation wasn't in the ReportGenerator section... What I wanted to see is the translation of a gregorian date to Hebrew. For example: April will be אפריל which is how you write April in Hebrew.

For example this is my line to retrieve the Hebrew value for "Apr":
<Apr T="אפריל">April</Apr>

The attribute for short month is S not T so try

<Apr S="אפריל">April</Apr>

Thanks Ron. Smile

The format that GenoProSupport suggested was just fine.
