I have a database with 2 languages in it but Designer only shows one of the 2 database scripts regardless of my client's regional settings... I always see the same database script.
How to switch languages so the database script can be edited in the other language?
I have an English client. The database is English and french. I have set my client's regional settings to french as well as the default language in the DB, and restarted the client.... no luck...
Thanks

good morning.
Is there a fast way to allow a user who opens a form with his lotus client to switch from one language to another, as happens in all web applications? I could think of a whole series of hide-when on all labels, but I'm afraid it would weigh down the application, are there other ways?
PS: I don't care about the web part, only the client side!
You can develop database with a multilingual design. To do that, you have to create a copy of every form in all languages you intend to support. In the Database Properties box, 4th tab (Design), select Multilingual database at the bottom, and you can set some defaults. In the Forms view, click the form, and in the Properties for the Form you can specify the language. The Notes client will pick the right form to display a document.
You can do the same with a View.
If there is a fast way to switch languages? I don't know, but don't think so. Your language preferences are stored in the Preferences in the Notes client.

We are going to install French language pack for Maximo 7.6.0.5 and we also want to reflect the french language in Maximo Anywhere. Will I get french language pack automatically in maximo Anywhere if I install french language pack in Maximo core? If not, please let help me what are the files i need to change to get french translations in Maximo Anywhere.
Maximo Anywhere GUI is based on the device's language. All supported languages are available in the apk/ipa you will be using. As long as your device is set to the French locale you should see the application in French.
If you have some custom labels in Anywhere you will need to see this instruction here:
https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/SSPJLC_7.6.2/com.ibm.si.mpl.doc/pdf_si_mpl_customize.pdf
There is one part that describes that situation:
Changing field labels The labels for fields in the mobile apps are
defined in the app.xml file. You can change any of the labels to match
your implementation of Maximo Anywhere. Procedure
In MobileFirst Studio, go to the Anywhere\MaximoAnywhere\apps\app_name\ artifact directory and open the
app.xml file with the XML editor.
On the Design tab, expand the view that contains the label attribute you want to change and enter the new name.
If you translate the mobile app, change the name of the label in the artifact.js file for each supported language. For example, if the
base language of the mobile app is English and you translate the app
to French, change the label name in the artifact.js file in the
Anywhere\MaximoAnywhere
apps\WorkExecution\common\js\application\translation\nls\fr directory.
Save your changes. The application is built automatically.
Optional: To preview your changes in the mobile browser simulator, right-click on the application folder and select Run As > Preview
I will add also some useful links here that are describing how Maximo works with multiple languages.

I´m using a TFS 2012 Update 4 (English).
When I´m using the Web Access, the Website is German becaue Auto-Detection (I´m using a German PC).
But this is confusing because the process template is English and so I´m using a German/English mix system.
I can change the language in my personal TFS profil settings to Englisch. That works.
How can I change the language for every user to english?
(Because now every day is somebody asking how to change the browser language to English :D )
Thanks in advance!
The default language is taken from browser preferred language. So if in browser language it is set as German and afterwards English the page will be open as German.
To set preferred language see http://www.wikihow.com/Change-Your-Browser%27s-Language
And to set it to everyone you may try group policy changes if applicable.
Hope this helps.

We have a SharePoint document management site and the documents will be uploaded from java portal, via SharePoint web services.
The metadata values will be provided multi language (Like Spanish).
Is it safe to accept and store such data in SharePoint as SQL server uses unique code format to store the SharePoint data in SQL server.
If storing the multilingual data in SharePoint is not right approach, is there any other way we can do it.
Please let us know your views if possible.
Given that this question is from 2013, I will base my answer on the On Premises versions of SharePoint.
From the description, it looks like the entry point for document to this document center is a Java portal that is probably in Spanish. It looks like the concern is the data entry of metadata (such as Description etc.) is coming from a Spanish based interface. It is quite possible that the hosting servers are also running with Language Packs (such as Spanish) installed. As such, it is possible for the user to enter and produce characters that do no appear in the English language and that is what concerns the original poster. The poster is correct in that SharePoint uses SQL Server as its back end data store, however, both the SharePoint and SQL Server products are (at least now) language agnostic. If you can produce the text and the Java interface correctly encodes said text, then there is no cause for concern. The data will be stored with full fidelity in SharePoint and by proxy SQL Server regardless of the host's language pack configuration.
In short, it's OK to do.
I have been working in my development machine with a Sharepoint installed in English. So the website I created and am woking on appears in English, I have created variations in different languages too (Spanish, Catalan, Basque, Galician).
Now I realise that the admin part that is in English, should be in Spanish.
I don't know how I could change the language, i have seen the following answer in a forum:
UPDATE dbo.Webs SET Language = 3082
This solves the problem for the language, the admin part of the website appears in Spanish, but when I enter the section of variation labels, it gives me an error.
Can anyone tell me the solution, or which other column in which table must I change (I know it is not recommended)?
Which is the table where it is saved the info about variations?
You should be very careful with modifying the database... not only is it not recommended but it will make your SharePoint environment unsupportable by Microsoft. Good for laughs, not much else.
So to give you the official answer, you cannot do what you are attempting without recreating the website. To quote Deploy language packs (Office SharePoint Server):
...once you choose a language-specific
site template for a site or a site
collection, the site or site
collection will always display content
in the language of the original site
template.
An update with no where clause - you may have just set all your variations to use the same language.
You'll also have the issue that keys get created in English, and after you make the change it searches for the keys in Spanish.
