Hello Experts,

I would like to ask for your help in the following problem. I have to change a report's selection screen language to English ifthe user logs on a particular language. Is that possible anyway in run time? I've already tried to do it with the SET LOCALE LANGUAGE at the INITIALIZATION event, but without any success.

Thank you in advance for any piece of tips!

Hi,

Those selection screen elements will get loaded before initialization event itself.

if you want to change the language then change the language in LOAD-OF-PROGRAM event like this..



load-of-program.
set locale language 'E' .  " --> Language Should be single character only 

Thanks:

RK

Can you please be clear on what you mean by change a report's selection screen language to English? You mean you are getting the descriptions in some other language but you want them to be in ENglish?

Hi

Selection-Screen text are Selection Texts and Text Elements .

So based on the logon language they will appear accordingly in the logged language.
