Sounds great. Before you start, I think you can download and use the existing Spanish translation. Then, you just need to add special translations for Paraguay.

Oh. After you use the export button, you email the result to me. The plan is to enhance our central server to store and manage all the translations, but that's down the road.

I tried to download a spanish translation but I get a message that says there is no translation available (version 6.6.28). I checked with the regional settings in Spanish for Mexico and Spain.

Hi Jordan.

I'm extending/improving the es-MX (Spanish Mexican) translation, but I have found that in some classes translation doesn't work 100%, for instance: ContrStaff (butAccounting, butAck, butBilling, butDeposit, butSupply, etc.). What I did, as a test, is add those controls to the Lan.C's params list, obviously, this code is going to be overwritten with next releases. Is there any aproach to translate all labels of the sollution? (programming some Plugins maybe) in SAP R/3, there are "Exists" ( Field Exists, User Exists, Menu Exists), user defined code that can be inserted in strategical points of the application to enhance/encrease the functionality.

For your attention, thanks a lot.

P.S.: I want to create an OpentDental Mexican Version( translate, configure the application closer to the Mexican Dental Practice, add some plugins, etc.) and offer this in the Mexican Dentist Market.

For the most part, you just have to let us know which areas do not seem to be translatable. Everything should be translatable, so I have put that down as a bug.

I'm going to prepare an inform with Classes that have controls not translatable and submit it to you then.

Thanks for your quick answer.
