I would like to ask (if possible)to think about the issue of the "name translation".

In my report, I had to write until now  on the same field the same name in English and and in Hebrew.

i.e - "Dan דן" 

I would like to keep working on only one Database

Is it possible to think of a mechanism to convert those fields into separate languages

For example, maybe it is possible that the user will make "master list" for names, like :

Dan דן = Dan (EN),  דן (HE).

Levi לוי = Levi (EN), לוי (HE).

Linda לינדה = Linda (EN), לינדה (HE).

The user will still have the ability to maintain only one database , but if he will choose to generate a report in english, the program would know how the convert the "source" name field, into its english version (i.e - Dan דן = Dan (EN) ) . if the user will choose to generate a report in Hebrew, the name filed will be converted into its Hebrew version (i.e - Dan דן = דן (HE)  )

I hope I could explain what I mean since my english is not so good

I am planning to add name translation to the Narrative Report soon, possibly in 2.0.0.6. This will work as you describe. I would also like to add the capability to add, in say an English Report, name alternatives in other languages e.g. Hebrew.

Yet another use will be the ability to group similar surnames under a common name in the Name & Family Index pages.

I have attached the sample NameDictionary for 2.0.0.5. Details of the Report Generator interfaces can be found here http://www.genopro.com/sdk/Class/NameDictionary/
