Insert Textpool with dictionary reference

Former Member — Wed, 18 Jul 2007 13:04:23 GMT

Hi!

I want to translate a textpool per down and upload in excel. I translate the downloaded textpool in excel and upload it for the new language.

The problem is: if the parameters are with dictionary reference, it doesn´t work - after INSERT TEXTPOOL it shows the parameter-text instead of the Dictionary-text.

Unfortunately, the checkbox (Dictionary Ref.) is not part of the TEXTPOOL structure. So when you read the text pool and update it using INSERT TEXTPOOL, it will overwrite all your existing settings including this checkbox. You will have manually go into the selection texts and check this box again.

thanks - i found another way by myself!

after uploading you have to add 'D_______' ( _ = blank -> 8 positions) in front of the text - then it marks the checkbox for dictionary reference!

Wow, thank you for sharing this with us. How did you figure it out? Is it documented somewhere?
