Description:
The interface for the mySql administrator and the mysql querybrowser is being picked up from the regional settings standards and formats section on the os. and doesn't use the os language setting

I have my standards and formats set to Greek as thats where I live so need the € sign and the currency delimiter set to a comma, also the date format to be ddMMyyyy as thats what we use in Greece.  Unfortunately I don't speak Greek so have my language set to English(US).

How to repeat:
On the language tool bar select English(United States)

In the control panel goto regional and language settings.  On the first tab 'Regional Options' select greek in the standards and formats panel.
Run mySql administrator and the language appears in Greek.

In the control panel goto regional and language settings.  On the first tab 'Regional Options' select English(United States) in the standards and formats panel.
Run mySql administrator and the language appears in English.

Suggested fix:
work around is to change the regional and language settings when using mySQL gui tools.

The code should pick up the localization and not the culture to work out which language to display.

Many thanks for writing a bug report. We are on the way to implement full functionality of MySQL Administrator into MySQL Workbench. We won't add this feature request anymore.
