Nasty bug in documentation regarding globalization - wrong Culture Info name for Serbian (Cyrilic)

[Dejan Vesic]

I found nasty "documentat ion" bug;

ms-help://MS.VSCC/MS.MSDNVS/cpref/html/frlrfsystemglob alizationcultur einfoclasstopic .htm

claims that proper culture info name for Serbian (Cyrillic) - Serbia
is "Cy-sr-SP" but if you try this, you will get "Culture name Cy-sr-SP
is not supported" exception.

If you set up culture info via
System.Globaliz ation.CultureIn fo(0x081A) and than retrieve
CultureInfo.Nam e you will get "sr-sp-Cyrl".

Could someone make actions to correct this, either in documentation or
in .Net framework.

Thanks,
Dejan

This is a Doc bug and it has been fixed for VS.NET 2003 MSDN release.

If you have it installed, it is at
ms-help://MS.MSDNQTR.2003 FEB.1033/cpref/html/frlrfSystemGlob alizationCultur e
InfoClassTopic. htm

It is now:
sr-SP-Cyrl 0x0C1A Serbian (Cyrillic) - Serbia
