Re: multi language interfaces

[Peter.Colpaert@xxxxxxxxxx]

Arco,

is it the intention to create different versions of the display files for 
each language, or to have one version of each display file, of which the 
language will change "on the fly" depending on the user preferences?

Hi all,

In our shop 95 % of the applications is RPG with 5250 user interfaces.
Almost all of the display files are hardcoded with Dutch conversations.
Management has decided that all new applications should have
multilangual user interfaces, based on user preferences.
The system language (we are on V5R2) is English and that will stay as it
is. Only the applications become multilang interfaces.

I googled around but can't find much about how to implement such thing.
Does anybody have a good starting point for this?

Many thanks,

Arco Simonse
