All,

We are looking for coding standards/guidelines for applications that would
be internationalized in future

Examples

- All characters and strings in the code (for comparing or
condition-checking) should be externalized, so that they can be replaced by a
new set if the application has to serve non-English input data

- Formatting date and times, currency, decimals

- International addresses

- Encoding and storing data in UTF8

- Usage of resource bundles


Any inputs/links on the above would be heplful. Appreciate your help.

Thanks in advance,
Rasheed

There's a very good summary here:

http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/getwr/steps/wrguide.mspx

MSDN also has lots of docs, including of course the whole .NET Framework
reference. Search for terms like "globalization" and you should find loads.

There's also a newsgroup called
"microsoft.public.dotnet.internationalization" on the same server as this
one.
