Does anyone know of an add on for SQL server to translate the langauge of the data to a different language? (i.e. translate german data to english data).

Or if anyone knows of a process that could be useful in completeing this process.


Thanks

You can change the collation and it will take care of certain things like dates and currency and alphabet but it will not change escuela to school or ciudad to city etc...

Machine translation is still a pretty primitive art and something always gets screwed up.

Please backup all of your databases including master, msdb and model on a regular basis. I am tired of telling people they are screwed. The job you save may be your own.
