Hi,

I've been trying the setup type project of the vs2005 for creating an
installer for my c# application.

It seems the setup projects lacks localization... I would like to make
a setup supporting several languages. Is it possible to do this with
for a vs2005 setup project?

Tnx

ptek,

I don't belive Visual Studio 2005 supports localizing Windows Installer
packages.

Sorry,

Actually Visual Studio 2005 does support creating localized MSI files
for the following languages:

Chinese (PRC and Taiwan)
French
German
Italian
Japanese
Korean
Portugese (Brazil)
Russian
Spanish

Simply set the Localization property (for the Setup project) to the
required language and build. You have to build a separate MSI for
each language you require.

If you need a languages others then those listed, or you would like to
be able to build a multi-lingual MSI (where a single MSI file can run
in multiple languages depending on the users locale) then you should
take a look at our Globalizer.NET tool. You can get more information
and download an evaluation version from www.infralution.com/globalizer.html
