Note Active Accessibility Text Services is deprecated. Please see Microsoft Windows Text Services Framework for more information on advanced text input and natural language technologies.

Syntax

HRESULT GetLocalizedString(
  [in]  REFGUID Term,
  [in]  LCID    lcid,
  [out] BSTR    *pResult,
  [out] LCID    *plcid
);

Parameters

[in] Term

Type: REFGUID

A globally unique identifier (GUID) that represents a property.

The locale of the string to be returned.

[out] pResult

Type: BSTR*

A localized string that represents the term.

[out] plcid

Type: LCID*

The language of the returned string.

Return value

Type: HRESULT

If successful, returns S_OK.

Remarks

This method returns the names of a property in the language specified by lcid. If that language is not on the system, Microsoft Active Accessibility finds the best match and returns the string in that language. If the Term parameter is not found in the dictionary, the pResult will be NULL.
