I'm using the mutlilanguage solution found in the filmaker 10 Bible.

I have a table "I" with calculation fields.

For example the field Country contains following calculation:

Evaluate("LanguageResources::Country"; gLanguageID)

Now you can imagine that it is a big work to change this calculation for every field (every Label, tooltip, dialog message, etc has a field about 200 in my solution)

I tried to get the Name of the field and to use it for the evaluate function like this:

Evaluate("LanguageResources::GetFieldName(self)"; gLanguageID)

But GetFieldName returns I::Country

(I is a table that contains the same fields like LanguageResources)

So I tried to substitute the "I::" with

Substitute(GetFieldName(self);"I";3;"")

This works fine but I cannot put together the two functions:

Evaluate("LanguageResources::Substitute(....)";gLanguageID);

So any ideas how to get work this? Or do I really have to change by hand the Fieldname in the calculation
