Q. Are there versions of Family History System for other languages?
A. Actually, I have received copies of the system that have been modified to provide screen displays and/or reports in German and Dutch and have heard of similar modifications in Swedish. None of these are supported by me though, and you may not receive the system extensions in these other languages. In recognition of the interest in these programs in countries where English (or "American") is not the native language, I do have plans for enhancements that would at least provide for customizing reports so that the report headings and field labels could be easily tailored for different languages. This will be my primary goal for the next FHS update. (Alas, it has been my primary goal for the past several updates as well. However the program changes required are quite extensive and the available time has been too limited.) I am also planning to make the program messages and screen displays "customizable" as well so that it may be possible to provide both programs and reports (though not documentation) in "multi-lingual" versions.
