Change the language of an exceptions message

Hi TheLearnedOne,

I tried setting CurrentCulture and CurrentUICulture but I'm still gettting english for my exception's message.  What am I missing here?

Here is the code:

Imports System.Globalization
Public Class Form2

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click


        Dim Spanish As CultureInfo = CultureInfo.CreateSpecificCulture("es-CO")

        System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentCulture = Spanish
        System.Threading.Thread.CurrentThread.CurrentUICulture = Spanish

        Try
            Throw New DivideByZeroException
        Catch ex As Exception

            'I want this message to change language.
            MsgBox(ex.Message)
        End Try


    End Sub
End Class

What operating system?  Do you have multi-language packs installed?

I use winXP pro.  How can I tell if I have multi-language packs installed?

I am not sure how Windows XP works with languages, but you might be able to check on the regional control panel applet.
