Set language

This procedure allows you to set the language for your screen without the need for a script. Based on the language that is set in your language mapper file, any words configured for translation to that language will be appropriately translated.

This procedure is an alternative to using a script like the following:

Sub Spanish_Switch()
  CimGetScreen.Application.Language = "Spanish"
End Sub

Note: You could also configure this procedure in the object model using the SetToSetLanguage method.

Example

For a better understanding, consider that you have configured the language mapper file to include Spanish. Next, you have added the words "Hello" and "World" along with a button to translate them on your screen. To translate the words, you have set the Action Type for your button to Set Language to Spanish. Now, when you select the button, the words "Hello" and "World" will be translated to Spanish.

On clicking the S button, the words "Hello" and "World" are translated into Spanish.
