Hi Gurus,

I got a requirement where in which I have two views.....

Its a bespoke webdynpro application done by someone in my organisation........There is a date field which is set to default value"01/09/2007".

If the user wants to change the date they can change it according to their need........But if they give wrong date format......they will get error message as "Please, give the value in the form 25/11/1987"........but now they are getting the message in german language.......how to change this to english..........Please help in regards......

Only the message is in German Language other text are in english.............

I have seen the code in NWDs no where its hard coded?what will be the root cause for this problem...........

Higher points will be rewarded for the useful inputs.........

Thanks in Advance,

Hi Dharani ,

I assume that the properties file (named as LANGUAGE ) for the Portal is not customized according to your need . In this file the default language will be "DE" (German Language), change it to " EN " (English) . bcoz that text ur talking about is from backend which is by default DE language .

Do reply if you are able to resolve ur issue or still u need any help .

Hi,

If this application is trying to connect to a back end system, it is possible that error message is coming from back end, and there, user's language preference might be set to german resulting in german message.

Another thing to see is if the application is supporting internationalization and users locale is being switched to german.

Good luck
