Another approach would be to expand into one language, e.g., English, then use resource bundles to translate those words into other languages. I don't know how effective this would be. Yet another approach would be to use a database to store translations. The finite approaches are limited, though, for example they might not work well for some words, such as "quatre-vingt" in French, which you might not want translated as "four-twenty" in English. Sorry, I'm not aware of any free code, but does Google Translate have a Web service? If so, do they charge for it? -- Lew
