Hehe I bet all the "only need"  English are. Legacy has become a pretty good
genealogy program, and I bet Legacy would like more people to use it,
but for quite a lot of people thge fact that it is only in English stops
them.

I have several programs for the fact that most of my family want any report
in
Norwegain, while I also have one line who want's it in English, as well as
those people
in the USA I help to find their ancestors. Sure I could give either the
translation in
the bottom of the report, or translate the whole deal. How many times
haven't I
translated a report and neded up with some very odd names because changing
all   "and" to "og" (and in English is og in Norwegian) and naturally all my
Andersen's
become Ognersen instead. Why would I change all, well there is many of them
and it takes me forever to change them one by one Sure I have found
different tricks
in how to keep errors out, but it still take forever and ever when you have
many requests.

All in all it will benefit any language speaking person to be able to have
different languages.
I am sure it would help sales as well having the possibility of having other
languages.
I doubt Legacy would have much of any problems getting people with different
languages
doing the translations for them if there just were a way to do so.
