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

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.
