Well, eventhough 1035 is [closed] and [fixed] the feature described is NOT working on Win platform.
Explaining to user (especially boss type of user, who finally decides whether to migrate to OO or not), that s/he should give additional thought and effort to assigning language on word-by-word basis is kinda difficult, especially with technology-challenged users. Thanks for voting. I am hoping that issue can be re-opened, whatever is the procedure for that. WBR, K.
