Hello Friends,

I have requirement to convert the text to US or British English at the entry time. I have 2 versions of this text in my database and a single entry screen. Is there any API available which can convert the US English to UK or vice versa so that I can store both versions in database and show to user.

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jagjot

I'm curious as to why you'd need to do this: the differences are not enough, I would have thought, to make it worthwhile.

Interesting. Maybe, it seems to you because you live in UK? :-) I noticed people from UK understand Americans better then the other way around :-) But you're right, in formal written language the differences are not so noticeable.
