Hi..

How to create localizable property?

I have a string named DIRECTX_1 in the string tables.
It contains :"DirectX installation failed." in 10 different languages.

Now I want to show this string using message box from custom action.

However, everytime, the message box only show the message in English (my default language). What could be the problem?

This is how I create the property:
1.In Behaviour and Logic ,Property Manager I create New Localizable Property
Property name: DirectXString
2.I click the elipsis and then select the value to be DIRECTX_1 in the string table
3.Then I save it.

In the custom action, after SetupInitialization I call the custom action to pop up a message box
MsgBox Session.Property("DirectXString"),0+VBCritical,"Test"

Everytime the message box always gives me "DirectX installation failed" no matter what language I choose.

How to create localizable property such that I can show a different string in different language based on user language selection?

Thank you

Sorry for asking the obvious: do you display the language selection dialog? did you select a language other than English? Are all of your other dialog strings displayed in the correct language?
