Hi Colin Are you trying to use Hindi for the FileMaker screen text, or in the fields where the user adds data?
Option 1 I add a global field example _Text Header to the layout using a "Merge Field", then I use a calculation to equal the value assigned and assign that value from a field with the name I want the Merge field to contain. Then on a layout I call the language translation screen, I collect both the merge field and the field that will get the text I want to use on the layout. When you type the language (any language) in the text field, the merge global will display that text. Option 2 If you want all of the text in the program in a different language, set the language text for FileMaker (Preferences, Fonts, then select the text font to be used.) If you have the original install DVD the language files are on that DVD. If you don't have the disc, go to FileMaker.com/support and download the country language fonts you want to use. Option 3 Localization of the OS, by setting the language for your OS to the language required, all test will be set to the local country.
