translating standard messages into other language

I have two problems (Delphi 4 prof.):

1. I don't know, how to translate message button names into other language:
like OK into V REDU or. CANCEL into PREKINI,... when I use messagedlg or
mesagebox etc.

2. Which language driver is correct for slovene (or croat.) for using DBASE
in delphi.

Thank you!

*the messages are located in the res files for the components, buttons etc.
*for delphi2 where has been a language pack from borland to switch the
compiler to an other language.
i dont know if this is available for delphi4 too
*delphi5 has a translation manager to translate to an other language

No, the language pack was only available for Delphi 2 and 3.

ps. For Delphi 2 and 3 there was also something available called a
Translation Suite, but I don't know if this was something like the Delphi 5
ITE.

afaik, there is no easy way to do this. you'll need to do it manually by
copying consts.pas to your project directory, if the changes are to be made
for this appp only. then you'll need to open and modify it to your
requirements.
