First you are trying to double post which is forbidden. Just edit your previous post.
Second, I have attached a copy of the stringtable.csv that Macguba used in Unimpossible Mission. It has a definition AND special characters for Spanish. Study it and you will see. Open it with notepad not excel.

You have to write a new overview/briefing for every language and title them Overview.Spanish or Briefing.Spanish, etc.
Place them all in your mission folder.

Not possible. (Though there are some limited exceptions).

To appear in multiple languages the title would have to be listed in the stringtable. When previewing the list of missions, the stringtables are not loaded by the game (only once you click Play). Hence, mission names cannot be in different languages.

The only exception is for words in the global stringtable ( <OFP>\Res\Bin\Stringtable.csv ), for example:

Quote

STRN_S03, 03: Bomberman, 03 : Offensive décisive, 03: Bomberman, 03: Ataq. Coordinado, 03: Bomberman, 03: Výbušniny, Mission name

And the correct way to call it would be to use @ (rather than $), eg. @STR_AUTHOR_30

Quote from: mission.sqm

version=11;
class Mission
{
   addOns[]=
   {
      ...
   };
   addOnsAuto[]=
   {
      ...
   };
   randomSeed=5891587;
   class Intel
   {
      briefingName="@STR_AUTHOR_30";

      ...
   };
...

Taking back what I said earlier; to have the mission name of your choice in multiple languages you would have to create a stringtable, pbo it and place it in the Addons folder
