Hi Jim,...

You can of course use the files which are in WDK:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003
R2\Samples\SysMgmt\Msi\database\INTL
These files include already translated texts for common Action and
Error texts.
You can create simple script to create the wxl files from these files.

Hope it will help you.

regards

Stefan
