Are there anything else missing?

Well, It is not so common in hebrew to display the "Hebrew year" in "digits". (e.g - 5767 for the gregorian year 2007 jan-sep)

In fact, it's very funny, and if you'll ask most people in Israel what is the current "hebrew year" in "digits", They will not know the answer.

I suggest to add a built-in "translator" to convert those digits to "Letters", and display the "letters" format instead.

for example: 5767 = תשס"ז

5766= תשס"ו

5765= תשס"ה

You can find a sample of an hebrew calendar to see the way a "Year" is displyed at:

Thanks for pointing this out.  To display the date in proper order, GenoPro would have to use the Hebrew digits/numbers.  Mixing Hebrew text with Latin text gives strange results.

Are there anything else missing?

Please give me feedback on this.  If you download & install version 2.0.1.1 at http://www.genopro.com/InstallGenoPro.exe, you will get the modifications.

 

Here is a samll problem on ver 2.0.1.1. The "Day" should be before the "Month" (On the right). Not after it.

It seems that the problem was solved. The Hebrew is displayed correctly and the dates are OK, too.

I will test it some more to see if I find problems.

I have been pulling my hair to find out what is going wrong... and I stopped because I don't want to go bald.

I made an update which has several improvements to display Hebrew text:

1) The graphical tree should display the dates properly, whatever the date is expressed in English or Hebrew.
2) The input field to type the date has also been improved to display the date as it should be.
3) I made a few changes how the text is displayed, however I am not sure if this will work on your machine.  I have two computers, and it is working on one computer but not the other.

Please give me feedback on this.  If you download & install version 2.0.1.1 at http://www.genopro.com/InstallGenoPro.exe, you will get the modifications.

In the first screenshot the Hebrew is correct but the dates are wrong. In the second screenshot the dates are displayed OK, but the Hebrew is backwards!

I am having difficulties having the text of the second screenshot correct.  Regardless what I do, the Hebrew text is always backwards.  Do you have a specific version of GenoPro, perhaps a beta, where the text was displayed correctly?  I have two computers, both running Windows XP Pro, and they display the text differently.  I tried many things and I am not able to get anything right on the second machine.  I wonder if GenoPro is displaying Hebrew text fine for you.  Posting screenshots will help.

Just to let you know I have not forgotten about this issue.  I had to release the newsletter and version 2.0.1.0 in a hurry (before the end of the month) and I am going away for the weekend.  I will resume the RTL text issues on Monday.

Here are two screenshots of your .gno file using the same http://www.genopro.com/download/InstallGenoPro.2.0.0.9.RTL.exe.  I have two machines running XP, the first having installed extra language packs (which produces incorrect results).  The second screenshot was taken from Windows XP having almost not installed anything.  When I run GenoPro on Windows 2003 Server, I get the correct result (same as the second screenshot).
