Some good points.
Well the idea was to make a table so the user could select the language. The 
table would have the words in various (English and probably Mandarin for 
now). It was more how to display them in the buttons, reports etc. But to 
start with buttons. As we are talking all over China it could be possible 
both dialects are required

My WAG - I don't see why not. If you had some top level setting in your
App that allowed someone to set a language thing - then you could simply
change the names on the Buttons to be Chinese. However, I still don't
see that as being sufficient. Since, if you were to do that for the
buttons - and make it so a Chinese person (assuming usage by one who
ONLY Speaks/reads Chinese) can use your App - then the buttons alone
would not do it. Since, ALL the field labels and error msg's must ALSO
be Chinese to make it useful. And, it brings up the other point.

Is it Mandarin or Cantonese? I work in a Chinese based company - with
many Chinese (as well as Americans) - and those are the 2 main dialects.
Even in my area - there are those that speak one, with several others
speak the Other.
