Hi Jens:

The *First* string table is the *default* string table.  Because you have
Danish as the first string table, it will load on any machine where none of
your string table LCIDs match.  You will have to make the Neutral string
table the first one to be the default -- here is the excerpt from the Res
Editor help file:

<snip>
A string table will automatically be selected at run-time based on the LCID
of the system; if a match isnοΏ½t found the system will load the first string
table in the resource file
<snip>

Hope this helps,

Doug.
