Supported Languages
The following table shows the language, culture name, and locale identifier supported in the MapPoint.BR, MapPoint.EU, MapPoint.Moon, MapPoint.NA, and MapPoint.World data sources. Use the CultureInfo class in a SOAP header to set the language for data returned by calls to a data source (such as map labels, driving directions, and found location names). The Name and Lcid column headings of this table correspond to the related properties of the CultureInfo class; click a heading to open the Help topic.

Remarks
With the exception of English–United States, MapPoint Web Service uses neutral language. For example, if you pass in the specific information for French–France (CultureInfo.Name=fr–FR or CultureInfo.Lcid=1036), MapPoint Web Service returns information in the neutral language of French (CultureInfo.Name=fr and CultureInfo.Lcid=12).
The SOAP header in which the properties of the CultureInfo class are passed depends on the method called. See MapPoint Web Service SOAP Headers for more information.
Found addresses are always returned in the local language.
The MapPoint.Icons data source and the MapPoint Web Service point-of-interest data sources (including customer data sources) are not translated. MapPoint.Icons contains only icons. MapPoint Web Service point-of-interest data sources are in U.S. English.
