I think I found a work-around... I used a start-up class with the following:


Static Public Sub Main()

     System.Language = System.Language

     FMain.ShowModal

End


It seems that setting the Language to itself solves the problem.... at 
this point my application translates just fine in both the IDE and 
running my itself.


Just FYI,

David

PS: I still cannot get the IDE in Spanish at the 1st start-up. ;)
