Resource String Tables

Hi
I've used the VB6 Resource Editor to create 2 resource string tables to support both German and English text.
This works more or less as I'd expect - on a PC with English (UK) regional settings the App displays in English, and changing the regional setting to German(Standard) displays in German.
The problem is that with other regional setting (say Portuguese) I want the App to default to English, but instead it displays in German.

The MSDN help file says -
"A string table will automatically be selected at run-time based on the LCID of the system; if a match isn’t found the system will load the first string table in the resource file."

The English string table is (as far as I can tell) the first in the resource file.
Anyone got any ideas what's happening here?
Many thanks.
