Access
To specify the relevant options before retrieving the translations of the chosen environment's constants, click the Dictionary button in the Retrieve dictionary or message translations dialog box.
This dialog box lets you specify the libraries containing the original and translated constant files, as well as the language and translation mode.
Each constant to be translated is identified individually, ignoring any associations with other constants.
Data entry
Reference library
Name of the library in which the H2CSTO file containing the source language constants is located.
Mandatory field.
Language library
Name of the library containing the H2CSTTR file with the constants translated into the selected language.
Mandatory field.
Language
List of languages defined for the target environment in the translation manager.
Consult the list and select the language into which the constants are to be translated.
Default setting: the last language used by the translation manager.
Mandatory field.
Note: The words "Not migrated" will be shown in the list, to the right of the language name, if the translation manager data has not been upgraded to the current version for the selected language. The affected language cannot be processed if this happens. Ask your administrator to perform the upgrade procedure.
