Hi   ,

First set ConfirmDelete to false

Second on the BeforeAction Event of the DBNavigator

Code: [Select]if Button = nbDelete then
     begin
          if MessageDlg('Your confirmation message', mtConfirmation,
[mbYes,mbNo], 0) = mrNo then
          begin
               Abort;
          end;
     end;
[code]

Hope this helps

regards

Thank you sir!

I confirm that it works. There is small detali that dialog caption is
untranslated on my system but I found solution on my way: added
ACaption (first parameter).
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i
MessageDlg('Window caption', 'Your confirmation message',
mtConfirmation, [mbYes,mbNo], 0) = mrNo

My question comes back.

In the dialog box are buttons "Yes" and "No". How to localize it?

If you use the lclstrconst.xx.po (where xx is your language) (together
with the translations unit) then all this should be localized.

About the original question.
If these strings aren't localized then feel free to supply a patch.

Add the resourcestring to lclstrconsts unit.
Rebuild the .po files.
(There's a tool in ($Lazarus)/tools)
Edit the pofile of your language to get the proper translation of the
new resourcestring.

There is an example called translation_demo, a wiki page:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Getting_translation_strings_right
with links at the bottom and a PoChecker package that could be useful
be useful.

You have given me very nice clues.

Because LCL strings translation already exists (Polish) I only need to
use it.

Good materials on this wiki: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Transl
ations_/_i18n_/_localizations_for_programs

- Added "DefaultTranslator" to program uses.
- Enabled l18n in project options.
- Copied "lclstrconsts.pl.po" file to "MyProjectDir/locale" directory
and renamed that file to "MyProjectName.pl.po" then it works.
Anyone knows how to use PO (or MO) file with LCL resourcestrings
without renaming it?

@anis2505:
Your solution has en error. Question dialog about deleting appears and
if I not select "Yes" but only close the dialog by "x" then deletion
succeed. I have corrected it already.

Should work without renaming: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Step-
by-step_instructions_for_creating_multi-
language_applications#Strings_defined_by_the_LCL
(Maybe you forgot to add "lclstrconsts" to the uses clause?)

@wp: the actual program does not need to have lclstrstconsts in it's
uses clause at all.
Just load the proper lclstrconsts.xx.po and every LCL resource string
will be translated (as long as the po file is up-to-date).

Ah sure, stupid! I was testing the tutorial sample with a QuestionDlg
and was using one of the strings in that unit.

Thanks.
It works:
Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]window.onload = function(){var x1 =
document.getElementById("main_content_section"); if (x1) { var x =
document.getElementsByClassName("geshi");for (var i = 0; i
Translations.TranslateUnitResourceStrings('lclstrconsts',
'locale/lclstrconsts.pl.po');
