Get Translated Caption for a Single Object in a Table in a customer script

The following small function demonstrates how to fetch the caption for a column. You can use it to fetch the caption for the PK column of your object as the caption should be in the singular.

So in your case, use UID_ADSGroup as column name when calling the function.

Public Function SDG_GetColumnCaption(ByRef entity As IEntity, columnName As String) As String
    Return entity.GetDisplayName(Session, columnName).Translated
End Function

Hi Markus

That work, but I'm facing the same problem as mentioned in www.quest.com/.../61394

While I'm using that code:

Dim translationType As String = String.Empty
Dim ci As System.Globalization.CultureInfo= CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture(uid_dialogCulture.Substring(uid_dialogCulture.Length - 5))
translationType = e.GetDisplayName(Session, "UID_" & e.Tablename).GetTranslated(ci)

with the swiss language cultures de-CH, fr-CH and it-CH it works only for de-CH, since there is also a de-DE translation in the corresponding dialogmultilanguage.

Do you know, if we can get the VPR#28852 also for 7.1.3?

I wan't to avoid to change all the .config files for that purpose

Contact support, they can supply you with the hot fix.

VPR#28852 is an enhancement and is not available for 7.1.x but only for 8.0 or higher.

Ah, I did not catch that.  I'll show myself out.

And https://www.quest.com/community/one-identity/identity-manager/f/identity-manager-forum/22720/language-according-provided-culture/61394#61394 contains a workaround. A nasty one I admit, but still.

How would You fetch a caption in a particular language , not just default value?

Can you describe your use-case, please? My code sample fetches the translated value according to your session settings. What is the default value in your case?
