Language

One copy of Results can run in many different languages if the RESLANG product is installed with Results. Use the Language option to select the language version of Results for the current QC file. Then every time you start Results using this QC file, you see screens and messages in the language you choose (for example, German or French).

When Results starts, it searches the results.l file to find the language it should use. If there is no QC file built for the current database (or databases), it uses the default language specified in the results.l file for all system messages. If there is a QC file for the current database, Results uses the language specified.

You can edit your results.l file before you use the initial build to build the QC file with the default language you want. For example, you can change the following line in your results.l file:

results.l
#edit the following line to set the default language for RESULTS
language= ’eng’ 

You can access this file from the Progress Procedure Editor.

You can change the default option from eng (English) to any of the languages available on your system. The languages available on your system are listed in the results.l file. They also appear in a list on the screen when you select the Language option from the Administration module Main Menu. Multiple languages are only available if you installed the RESLANG product.

There are multiple versions for some languages (French and Greek) because these languages need to support different character sets. For example, French supports seven-bit and eight-bit character sets and Greek supports 928 and 437 code page versions. Be sure to select the appropriate language version.
