{{TOC right}}As described in '''[[Change the Language | How does IMSMA know which language to use?]] ''' it is the Regional settings on your computer in combination with the language files in the ''C:\IMSMAng\client\resources\com\fgm\imsma\lexicon '' folder which determine which language {{IMSMANG}} will use.
==Case - {{IMSMANG}} has all files for the language==__NOEDITSECTION__ In this example, the regional settings is set to French (France) and the menus etc. are in French and the enumeration values have translations.[[Image:French w trans.png|500px|center]]<div align="center">'' The French translation of enumeration values have been imported into the database ''</div>==Case - {{IMSMANG}} does not have all files for the language OR the translations have not been imported to the database==__NOEDITSECTION__ In this case example, the regional settings is set to Spanish (Colombia) and the menues menus etc. are in Spanish but the enumeration values do not have translations OR the regional settings is set to French (France) and the menus etc. are '''without''' in French but the enumeration values do not have translations.

See '''[[Update the Localisation Files#trans.properties | this page]]''' how to create translation for enumeration values.
See '''[[Import the Translations | this page]]''' how to import translations for enumeration values.

If there are no plans to translate {{IMSMANG}} to the local language/variation then it is recommended to # check in Data Inventory Manager which is the code of the local language/variation (e.g. ''sv'' for Swedish)# '''[[Export and Translate the TermsTranslations|export] ]''' the English translations
# rename the file (e.g. trans_sv)
# '''update''' the first row in the file to the new language code
# '''[[Import the Translated TermsTranslations|import]] ''' the file as the local language/variation. ==Case - {{IMSMANG}} have files for the language but you do not want to use them==__NOEDITSECTION__ If you prefer to use {{IMSMANG}} in English but would like to have the regional settings set to a language that {{IMSMANG}} have language files for then the easiest work-around is to rename the two language files in ''C:\IMSMAng\client\resources\com\fgm\imsma\lexicon'' e.g. ''ITerms_fr.properties'' to ''ITerms_frxx.properties''. You will get the enumeration values in the local language since they are imported into the database and your regional settings is set to French.
