NATIVE LANGUAGE SUPPORT
ENTRY AND LANGUAGE lD NUMBER
ENTRY AND LANGUAGE lD NUMBER
The native language ID assigned for the forms file language determines the native
language used by ENTRY unless the file is international (-1). ENTRY uses the intrinsic
VGETLANG to identify the native language ID assigned by the forms designer for the forms
file language.
If the forms file is international, ENTRY calls the NLS intrinsic NLGETLANG (mode 1). If it
returns a value of UNKNOWN, the user is prompted for a native language ID number.
Once a valid native language ID number is determined, ENTRY calls the VSETLANG
intrinsic to specify the corresponding native language.
The batch file does not have a native language indicator. Users with different native
languages may collect data in the same batch file if the associated forms file is
international.
