ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a computer implemented method and apparatus for storing and retrieving data in a database management system (DBMS) in multiple languages, simultaneously, using a fully-populated Sub-Table. In one embodiment, the method and apparatus include generating a Base Table and a Translation Sub-Table. The Base Table includes base rows, each having a primary key and zero or more untranslatable values, exclusive of translatable data values. The Translation Sub-Table includes sets of sub-table rows, wherein each set of sub-table rows corresponds to a base row in the Base Table. In each set of sub-table rows, a sub-table row is provided for each operational language having at least one translatable data value corresponding to the primary key of the respective base row.
