A computer readable medium, system, apparatus and method are disclosed for
generating and regenerating query results in reports whereby conditions
for filtering a query against multilingual databases are preserved
independent of language and/or locale. According to one embodiment of the
present invention, a computer readable medium includes executable
instructions to specify a language-dependent value for filtering query
results during a query. Other executable instructions are included to
associate a first locale to the language-dependent value, determine a key
based on the language-dependent value and on the first locale, and
generate a transformed query, which can include a locale variable
configured to indicate a second locale for regenerating the query results
to form regenerated query results for the second locale using another
language-dependent value.
