It's a quiet Monday, so I though I would ask the following question:

How do multi-national companies deal with the language problems with a 
head office in New York and offices in Paris (French),  Dusseldorf 
(German) and Tokyo (Japanese).  No doubt the records from each location 
would be created in the mother tongue.  Are they kept in the mother tongue 
and translated into English or retained as they are?  When searching for 
data in English, how do you locate information found in French?  If anyone 
has any experience with this, I would appreciate it.
