Is this possible?  I need the same data item in both english and french.  It is currently stored only as english.  I know there are ways to change the user's preferences but I think that's a global change.

I was wondering if there is a way to 'translate' the current english item into a new french item .

Any ideas?

Thanks!

It just a matter of applying a bit of CASE logic to either use item1 or item2. The point is what drives the CASE logic. Using the locale()  setting does indeed check the language setting of the user. But what type of logic do you need/want?
