    Abstract: A system, method and program product for storing relational tables wherein the tables comprises alternative messages according to a variant such as a national language. The relational tables further comprise at least a message key specifying a message and a variant key specifying a variant for selecting the appropriate message from the alternative messages. For example, the relational tables comprise language variant=1 for English and Variant=2 for French. An SQL query searches or sorts the list relational tables for entries appropriate for the language of interest. The relational table entries can be edited and new alternative messages are assigned a new message key according to a predetermined algorithm.
