The following seems to work correctly:

     on importLanguage
         local tFile
         answer file "Choose the language file"
         put it into tFile
         if tFile is empty then exit to top
         open file tFile for "UTF-8" text read
         read from file tFile until EOF
         put it into tData

         -- etc.

     end importLanguage

So... I don't suppose I can persuade you to upgrade to LiveCode 
Business, can I?
