I was brought on this question by a co-lister who could not load a wor saved
on a "foreign" MI on an English ProViewer.

I have identified the possible origin to the labelling of the frame titles
of a layout saved in the wor. More precisely, it is the presence in those
titles of some key words that creates the problem; these key words are those
appearing in the automatic naming of the windows when created by MI (ex.:
"impact analysis Map" or in French "analyse de l'impact Carte"). I have
detected the following : Map, Graph, Browser, Legend, Theme Legend, Info
Tool, Statistics, Messages, Redistricter (Any more?)

A way around implies renaming the windows to make sure that the "foreign"
key words are not used.

I would not be surprised to learn that this problem occurs between MI of
different languages, that the exchange of wor between machines set for
different languages is hampered by that problem.

I would like to have confirmation of my observation and details on
circumstances in which it was observed and ways around it.

I have written a small mbx that may be of help (It scans a wor for specific
"foreign" key words that if found are replaced by English ones). I could
very easily expand its functions to translate between any two languages, but
I would like to have a more documented view of the problem before I make the
changes.
