I went in debug and looked inside the array of locales. Only 2 locales were
found (country "" + language "en" and country "US" + language "en"). So I
don't believe that's the problem (but I've learned to never say never again
...).
Most likely it will be a "English only" JRE (if possible). But how can I
find this out ??? How do I know wich languages are possible with the JRE I'm
using ???

P.S. Thanks already for the help ... never thoughed it could be such a
problem (if I knew, the title of the post wouldn't begin with simple ...)
