Release 10.1A: OpenEdge Getting Started:
Installation and Configuration

OpenEdge messages

The text used in OpenEdge messages is contained in the PROMSGS file. OpenEdge provides various language editions of the PROMSGS file in the %DLC%\prolang subdirectories that you select during installation.

Each file has an extension that identifies its language.

To run OpenEdge with a certain version of PROMSGS, set the PROMSGS environment variable to the appropriate file. For example:

PROMSGS=C:\Progress\OpenEdge\prolang\ger\promsgs.ger

After you set the PROMSGS variable in the progress.ini file, you must run ini2reg to update the registry.

By default, Progress displays messages from %DLC%\promsgs.
