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!

This depends on Windows version, and you cannot change system
messagedialogs.

1. Copy Consts.pas to your application directory and translate the contents
(this file contains button names, but there are other files that contain
more texts !).

2. ?

Could you tell me what I have to add in my Unit.pas to make it work with the
new consts.pas.
I tried, but it does not work.
I added the consts.pas file in my application location, with the new const
of course, but nothing changed...

Can you help me?

Don't use MessageBox (it uses the current Windows language). Use MessageDlg
instead !
