*Never* post the same question to two forums. It wastes everyone's time. I have deleted the duplicate you sent to Collaboration. Please don't do this again.

>But when i change the site language = arabic, i get only "Collaboration and Meeting Tab" other tabs disappear. How can i show the >Custom Tab when i select Arabic., When you have an additional language you get only the standard templates. But if you create a new Arabic template and add it to the template library then that is likely to be a custom template and what will happen is that a Custom Tab (containing it) will appear when you select Arabic. 2010 Books: SPF 2010; SPS 2010; SPD 2010; InfoPath 2010; Workflow etc. 2007 Books: WSS 3.0; MOSS 2007; SPD 2007; InfoPath 2007; PerformancePoint; SSRS; Workflow Both lists also include books in French; German; Spanish with even more languages in the 2007 list.

Ok, Not again. Hi Mike, I get what you are saying, may i didn't explained in detail. I already have some templates in the Custom Tab which i can see when i select "English" Language, But that all disappears when i select "Arabic" Thanks.

I'll try again. A (custom) template created while in an English site will create a template that is listed under the Tab "Custom" when you select English. If you select Arabic, the only templates you will see under a custom tab will be those that were created while you were in an Arabic site. *They are different templates* (see ! below) Does that help. (!) (Even the standard templates that are listed directly after you install the product (English) and after you install the Language Pack (Arabic) are different templates even though the only difference you can see are the different languages in the text parts) 2010 Books: SPF 2010; SPS 2010; SPD 2010; InfoPath 2010; Workflow etc. 2007 Books: WSS 3.0; MOSS 2007; SPD 2007; InfoPath 2007; PerformancePoint; SSRS; Workflow Both lists also include books in French; German; Spanish with even more languages in the 2007 list.

Hi Mike thanks for reply. I have templates from Corasworks (thirdparty) that will show up in Custom Tab and my templates when enligsh. But these all together does not appear when i select Arabic Thanks

As I said before templates based on English sites appear only in a Tab in the English option. They do not also appear in a Tab in the Arabic option. If you have a template from CorasWorks that appears in an English tab it is a template based on an English site.
