    Description:
    I can't find where the option to change the language is located in the configuration files for the GUI.

    We have two languages - English (regular library language) and Archival (for archival processing language). I've been through the documentation - particualrly the System Librarian's Guide - General chapter. It alludes to a .dat file controlling this, but I haven't been able to find the exact file.

    Currently all our users have English language and cannot change it to Archival.

    Resolution:
    The .\Alephcom\tab\conv_lng.dat controls what languages display when you click on the Tower-of-Babel icon on the lower right. The first language in the file is the default.

    See KB 16384-39618 for complete info on adding another language in the GUI.
