What is a good method to localize labels (column headings, field labels, headers/footers, etc) on Crystal Reports?
We are currently on XI R2 SP4 but are looking to migrate to 2008. It looks like 2008 offers better localization of the viewer UI. Does it have a content localization story?
The two options that I can think of are: 1) Have a separate report for each localized version (this gets ugly quick and I don’t recommend it very highly) or 2) Have the report generated from an application (say a c# windows/web app) and then you can localize using .net’s localization standards and setting all of the localized text (read in from resource files) in the code.
I am not certain about 2008 but we are also on XI R2. We have localized reports for each language but only because we * know * that we will only need three different localized versions.
