Localize a List Box into multiple languages

I've seen how to localize Text box elements, however, I'm struggling with how to localize a list box which I am using as a selector. The data in this listbox is hard coded (for example One, Two, Three, Four) and needs to be changed in the UI when the user selects, say Spanish to look like (Uno, Dos, Tres, Quatro) ...the English selections should not show up...any thoughts would be very useful. Thanks!

LB     -> select “Spanish” in another list box

=======                ========

One                        Uno

Two                        Dos

Three                      Tres

Four                       Quatro

=======                ========

Hi, Qlikview does not provided multi lenguage tools, you have to create it,

i attached some examples, it is really usefull and easy to implement.

Hi Fernando,

Thanks for the information! Just one question. Is it possible to have a list box in multiple languages WITHOUT modifying the current file.

I have a data base, that is generated automatically, and I can't modify it! So I have to create a new file, with the dictionary, but I don't know how to co the list box in multiple languages.

Thanks!
