    Using langauge dictionary in asp.net control

    hi :) , i'm trying to make an asp.net control, that has an asp.net label, i want this label's text to be set according to the current language of the website,

    is there a way like label.text=umbraco.dictionaryitems.Getbyname("itemName");

    i know it's kinda fiction :D , but is there a way to set it automatically :)

    thanks :)

    Hi,

    Check out this post on Tim's blog, it explains how to use the dictionary items via umbraco.library:GetDictionaryItem("key"), and also has a method for setting the controls texts "automatically" - .net usercontrols and the umbraco dictionary

    Hope this helps,
    Tom

    the object can't be viewed in the object browser because it's not availble or not yet built please insure that the project is availble and built.

    Hmm, works for me.  Where are you getting this umbraco.dll from?  You should get it from the binaries download on codeplex - the same one that sits in the /bin/ folder of your website.

    Not really sure what else to try :/  never had that problem.

    Are you running VS2010?  And configured to use .NET 4?
