Previously, language tags were used to internationalize a component. For example, by setting a control label to: a5:r Label1/a5:r, you could look up the string replacement for Label1 from a "Language Definition" that was stored as part of the component. Now, in addition to the "language" tag, a new type of tag is available. The "text dictionary" tag can be used to lookup the tag definition in a SQL table - the "Text Dictionary Table". This makes it much easier to internationalize your application. Note that text dictionary tags are not limited in their use to internationalizing applications. They can be extremely useful for displaying dynamic content in an application. The content shown in the application is retrieved at run-time by querying the SQL Text Dictionary database. (Note: Also applies to the Grid Component).
