Translation and Customization Principles

To translate or customize CA Dataquery panels, including menus, messages, and Help panels, you simply view the panels and type your translation or customization over the existing information.

To translate or customize vocabulary and literals, CA Dataquery provides an Edit/Translate panel where you enter the translation or customization.

To make it easier to choose items for translation or customization, CA Dataquery provides complete lists and directories of all panels, literals and vocabulary words. You initiate translation and customization from these lists and directories. A sample panel directory page follows:
