Minor Upgrade; New controls in Dialog cannot display the correct language

Hi,

I have added a new control in one of my dialog but this control alone is not displaying the correct language. My MSI project supports 2 languages Eng and Japanese. When an installation is performed in Japanese and on upgrade the dialogs appear in japanese but only this control is appeared in english. Can anyone inform what is the reason behind this.
I tried on Installshiled 2009 Premium edition and also in 2008 version.

Thanks in advance,
Ank

Check the Japanese Dialog Control text in Dialog UI..

In Japanese dialog control text is appearing correctly (Eng and Japanese for corresponding dialogs). Problem is at runtime.

Problem in detail;

Modified an msi project for minor upgrade-
1. Added a new control (button) on already existing dialog.
2. Added string in both english and japanese string tables.
3. Design view in english shows the control text in english, design view in Japanese shows text in Japanese.
4. Fresh install shows the control either in English or Japanese depending on the language selection.
5. On upgrade this control's text always shows in english. (We are upgrading on an old installation which havent had this control on that particular dialog).

We are using InstallShield 2009 msi project.

I have the same or a least a very similar problem with Installshield 2008.

Except I have Chinese and English UIs. The Chinese dialog looks fine in the dialog view, but when the dialog is presented during a minor upgrade (on a Chinese version of XP) any new controls that I have added are in English, whilst the controls whose strings have not changed from the ones provided by Installshield are presented in Chinese (i.e. < &Back etc).

Any help would be appreciated.
