Hi Lea,
Merci / Thanks for your sample !
Leo's explanations were quite great but how can I as newbie
follow !? ;-(
with your sample I see you are bilingual FR and EN and your locale is
F ! ;-)

Can I just copy and paste your sample into my environment and remove
all entries of FR ... and replacing 'fr_FR' with the Swiss German one
and
how does the Swiss German look: de_CH ???

TIA for advise and guidance !
Cheers, svobi
