1. I learned that it is no good programming style to put non-ASCII letters in pure source code.

Fair point. But not necessarily true. But that's another story... Smile

2. But I want a multinational application, so I need different language support and I don't know how to achieve this in this way.

I've attached a simple example which changes the app title, and static text to English, Czech, and Turkish, using a droplist. Maybe it'll give you an idea.

But why? Why doesn't it take the string correctly from the .t file but from the source code?

It does. But *.t files are AFAIK component/application-wide, and applied on initialization (not sure about the latter though). It'll pick up the Czech version of the strings only when the language is set to Czech (or the default strings are in Czech).
