>Hi!
It's me again with my silly questions.
Does .Net framework 1.1 hold any list of all the countries in the
world/region?
I'm deveolping a windowsform and I need to list all available countries in
a combox or listview in the specific language. I rather don't want to add
all countries by hand (stored in a MS SQL Server) and in different languages.
Do the Systems.Gobalization or System.Threading hold the key to my solution,
or where can I find help.
Best regards
Hans
Not a silly question, Hans.
There is a list of all the countries in the world that belong to the
International Telecommunications Union (ITU) at WikiPedia, but it is not in a
format you can just load up. Search Wikipedia for "ITU Allocations" or "ITU
Callsign Allocations" you might even look for "ITU Members" and get a list that
you can read via computer. If a country uses telephones or has radio
broadcasting they will most likely be in that list. If they are not they will
be a very small country indeed.
Good luck with your project,
