This solution is good but it have to be made carefully.. You have to make a copy of file en_products.php and save it to nl_products.php, en_products_ext.php to nl_products_ext.php, en_products_files.php to nl_products_files.php and en_products_pages.php to nl_products_pages.php. Very important thing is to not changing files with database schema (which ending by ".def" !). And in this case everything should work fine..

also, be careful, when you change the product database in one language (for example you delete one product), YOU MUST change it also in other, so that the databases remain totally identical. Because otherwise the customer could get an invalid link (for example from google) that could confuse hom or not work at all.

If you want to have different databases for different languages, use my proprietary modification CheckUpdate: http://opensolution.org/Quick.Cart/forum/?p=readTopic&nr=5238
