Well, if I had the Enterprise version like you do, I would recompile the FR components making sure they have all debug information, and put a break point in the line where you call the print preview dialog boxes, and by entering the code (F7) try to find out how it's getting the resources for the dialog boxes.
I can think of 2 options for what might be happening:
- it's using standard Windows dialogs. In that case, you probably need to set your Windows regional settings/language to German, or maybe it will only work if the installation was originally done using the German version of Windows, not English. I don't know, it's a guess, needs to be considered/investigated.
- it's using it's own resources to build the preview dialog boxes. In that case, you will have to track it down and see where it loads the language settings from and see what is it that you are missing, or even, find the English text that is being used, replace by your German equivalent, rebuild all packages and source codes.
These options are worst (desperate) case scenario. There might be a simple FR setting solution for this, but I don't know it, did you search the whole forums for it?

if it has not been fixed already.
go to your fastreport 4\resource\German folder open the xml files in wordpad and replace any english strings with german then recompile using frs recompiler.
it is probably in frclass.xml.
