Guys!
David Musgrave the GP developers guide has just released a new great tool that exports ALL dictionary strings and messages, in addition to allot of other helpful functionalities as a part of his Dexterity Translation Series, personally this tool really made my day!
Check his tool below:

I found a good question on the newsgroup answered by David Musgrave, one of the solution's steps was the conversation format between Georgian Date (Standard Date) and Hijri Date from the following link:
http://www.microsoft.com/middleeast/msdn/arabicsupp.aspx#31
Using Hijiri Calendar
You can set a culture to one of its supported calendar types. For example, the Arabic cultures support the Hijri calendar, so, you can set the Arabic culture calendar to Hijiri calendar. As mentioned before, the CultureInfo.Calendar is a read-only property which gets the current calendar, but can't be changed. Instead, you can specify the calendar of the DateTimeFormat.Calendar of the CultureInfo, as in the following code :
// Create a CultureInfo object for Saudi Arabia.
CultureInfo sa = new CultureInfo("ar-SA");
sa.DateTimeFormat.Calendar = new HijriCalendar();
You can perform any operation with Hijri dates in the same way, such as displaying Hijri and converting Hijri from/to Gregorian or other calendars.
The following example converts a date from Gregorian to Hijri and displays it:
DateTime dt;
System.Globalization.DateTimeFormatInfo HijriDTFI;
try
{
dt = Convert.ToDateTime("12/26/2001");
HijriDTFI = new System.Globalization.CultureInfo("ar- EG",false).DateTimeFormat;
HijriDTFI.Calendar = new System.Globalization.HijriCalendar();
HijriDTFI.ShortDatePattern = "dd/MM/yyyy";
Console.WriteLine(dt.Date.ToString("f", HijriDTFI)};
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine(ex.Message);
}
The output is:
The following example converts date from Gregorian to Hijri using two different methods:
DateTime dt = new DateTime(1422, 1,1, new HijriCalendar());
Console.WriteLine(dt.Date.ToString());
The output is:
26/11/2001 or 11/26/2001 (according to your current culture settings)
Hope this helps.

Error message shown sometimes upon the first launch of GP, and when you open the Dynamics.txt, a list of controls displayed.
When the user creates a new controls using Modifier and adds those controls to VBA, VBA will create references for those fields in the VBA file, while the modifier stores those objects in the FORMS.Dic.
So if the FORMS.Dic deleted, or those fields were deleted from the Forms.dic this message will keep showing up informing you that those objects does not exist and you VBA code will not work.
The solution for this is one of two:
1. Since there is no way to "Remove Field from VBA" then you will need to follow steps below:
A. Copy the VBA code into notepad.
B. Remove the complete form from VBA.
C. Re-add the form to VBA.
D. Add ONLY needed fields to VBA
E. Replace your code.
2. If you are looking only to ignore this message and prevent it from being shown, you may need create a file called "DEXVBA.INI" in your WINDOWS folder and place the following code segments inside it:
[General]
NoUnresolvedDialog=TRUE
Hope this helps!

Most of the regional companies that have multiple offices would like to have centralized databases and servers, and they also like to keep these databases centralized when implementing Microsoft Dynamics GP.
Doug Pitcher detailed the remote connection methods applicable with Microsoft Dynamics GP in his post below:

Hope it helps!
