Configuring Native Languages

Before native languages can be used on a system (except NATIVE-3000), they must be configured by the system manager using the LANGINST utility program. (Refer to the MPE XL System Utilities Reference Manual (32650-90081) for the LANGINST dialog.) The system manager can select which supported language(s) to configure and modify formats associated with them (for example, this feature is useful to a system manager in Austria who wants to install German with a different currency symbol than the default for this language). After a language has been installed, language-specific information available in NLS may be used by any application program requesting it.

	NOTE: All language configuration changes are effective only after a system startup; at that time, the languages are installed.
