Thanks Ken.

Of course there is, how you do it depends on what language platform you

use
to develop your addin. For unmanaged code you can use a resources file

with
different columns, one column for each language you intend to support. For
managed code you can also use a string resource file and use the culture
settings to load the appropriate string for the current language.

Is there a standard way to develop a new Add-in to so that it can be
multi-lingual?

I.e. Dialog prompts, form text labels etc would lookup a language table
with
the appropriate word, phrase or sentences based on the language chosen?

TIA
