I have defined two resource files: val_en.properties and val_de.properties.
Depending on the machine locale the correct resource will be used.
I have then created a table and bound it to a data set from a xml data
source. Next I have added a text field to the header row.
Now the text field contains a parameter from the data set:
"The space has <VALUE-OF>row["Dimension"]</VALUE-OF> dimensions."
The text needs to be localized (I have localized the text field with a key
from the properties file) but the parameter from the data set does NOT need
to be localized.
Any idea on how to mix localization of text with parameters from a data set?

Can you try localizing the portion yo need by doing this
<VALUE-OF>reportContext.getMessage("text1");</VALUE-OF>
instead of using the property editor.
Replace text1 with your desired data field.
<VALUE-OF>reportContext.getMessage(row["Dimension"]);</VALUE-OF >

Ok I think I found something. On this page the last question deals with
above described problem:
http://www.birt-exchange.org/wiki/BIRT:Internationalization/ #Q:_Do_BIRT_reports_support_localization_.28L10N.29_and_inte rnationalization_.28I18N.29.3F
They suggest to use javascript and add the following:
<VALUE-OF>l10nParams = new Array(1); l10nParams[0] = orders;
reportContext.getMessage("messageOrdersKey", reportContext.getLocale(),
l10nParams);</VALUE-OF>
But where should this be added? In a dynamic text box or in the script part
of text box?
And another thing, they write:
" First define the key messageOrdersKey with this content: "There are {0}
orders."
I assume they mean that the this key should be added to the .properties
file, like:
messageOrdersKey = "There are {0} orders."
I have tried this but the text is previewed like this:
There are {0} orders.
I have tried this instead (where part1, and part2 are keys in the property
file):
<VALUE-OF>l10nParams = new Array(1); l10nParams[0] = row["orders"];
reportContext.getMessage("part1", reportContext.getLocale(), l10nParams);
</VALUE-OF>
<VALUE-OF>
row["WorkingWeeks"];
</VALUE-OF>
<VALUE-OF>
reportContext.getMessage("part2", reportContext.getLocale());
</VALUE-OF>
Which gives the correct result, but its rather nasty code!

If you put the example from the wiki in the properties file and add the
code from the example to a text element with its content type set to
html it should work. The way you got it to work is also fine.
