iOS Question Mass change of labels using map file

[John Woodsmall]

I have this map file "en.map":

Button1="Clearit"
Button12=OK - Birthday
Button14=Testimonials
Button2=Cancel
Button3=Clear
Button4=Sound - ON
DatePicker1=Date
General_info=General Info
Lable1=Person x >>
Lable3=                  An Entertainment Feature Of:  © Lifestyle Interactive Media - All Rights Reserved
Lable4=Person 2 >>
lblfirstdate=Tap to Enter 1st Person
lblseconddate=Tap to Enter 2nd Person
Read_Person1=Retrieve Person 1
Results=Results
Save_Person1=Save Person 1 as Default
Scores=Scores
Speek1=TAP This GOLD Text To Enter 1st Person By VOICE
Speek2=TAP This GOLD Text To Enter 2nd Person By VOICE
main.lable1=Hold Blue Button Above  to speak birth data (Sample: ... May 5, 1987) 
main.textview2=Check accuracy of BIRTHDATA:
main.lable2= After Correct Birth Date loads CLICK HERE TO GO BACK (to home)

I run this sub:

Sub Table7_CellClick (Col As Int, Row As Int)
    Log("CellClick: " & Col & " , " & Row)
    rx = Row
    language_name = Table7.GetValue(0,Row)
    language_abv = Table7.GetValue(1,Row)
    'Msgbox ("Language=" & language_name & " " & language_abv," ")
    MapFileName = language_abv & ".map"
    Log ("Mapfile name=" & MapFileName)
   Dim m As Map = File.ReadMap(File.DirAssets, MapFileName)
   For Each v As View In Page1.RootPanel.GetAllViewsRecursive
      Log("--" & v & v.Tag)
     If v Is Label And v.Tag <> Null And m.ContainsKey(v.Tag) Then
       Dim lbl As Label = v
       lbl.Text = m.Get(v.Tag)
      Log("Lable text=" & lbl.Text)
     End If
    If v Is Button And v.Tag <> Null And m.ContainsKey(v.Tag) Then
       Dim bt As Button = v
       bt.Text = m.Get(v.Tag)
      Log("Button text=" & bt.Text)
      End If
    'If v Is ImageView And v.Tag <> Null And m.ContainsKey(v.Tag) Then
     '  Dim ve As ImageView = v
     '  ve.Text = m.Get(v.Tag)
    '  Log(ve.Text)
     'End If
   Next
End Sub

I am expecting to modify the labels and buttons in the app, but I get this trace in the log:

there are questions:
1.) why do it not work?
2.) why does it see: UIImageView ; when it is not asked for and how to avoid this.

thanks!

Also do i need double quotes around the tags?

why do it not work?

1. Hard to say from this code snippet. You should create a small project and upload it (with the map file).
2. You are iterating over all views:

For Each v As View In Page1.RootPanel.GetAllViewsRecursive
Log("--" & v & v.Tag)

You don't need to add quotes.
