guys, i really need some help here. after spending 5 hours on forums, and anything else i can find for Telerik, i still don't have a clue where to start.
we've spent the last 3 years developing our website that has numerous pages, and all of those pages are full of rad Controls.
radGrids,radFilters by themselves and on the grid. radCombo boxes. u get the idea. it's simply 99.9% Telerik (Rad) Controls.
well, we've just been told that this whole site needs to be able to be in German as well as English & it'll be selectable when the opening page pops up(assuming a drop down).
everything i'm reading on your site jumps back and forth from Globalization to Localization and dates back to 2006. it asks about doing this control in another language & that control in another language. you know sort of control by control.
frankly, i have no idea where to start. i do read that english /German & French is supported right out of the box.
i need to know how to get that out of the Telerik box.
i've never ever worked w/ Globalization or Localization.
can i simply do this globally? do i have to have .resx files in english and german already created and in a folder somwhere.
do i have to do this by Control or by the page??
i did see on Telerik Tv a guy who simply set the culture of his radGrid to Bulgarian. i dont have that property in any of our radGrids. and i can't do this statically, it has to be dynamically.
if there's a switch somewhere, i would appreciate some real help here as i have 2 months to turn hundreds and hundreds of rad controls to display german or English depending on the selection when the user logs in.
thanks again for any help on this
