Help Text Translation Files

You can dump form, field, or data file text translations to an ASCII text file. Help text translation files are ASCII text files containing all the Help text from forms, fields, or data files, and are created by the Dump Field Text utility (dmpfldtxt), the Dump Form Text utility (dmpscrtxt), and the Dump Data File Text utility (dmpdftxt) respectively.

Dump Field Help Text Utility

The Dump Field Text utility (dmpfldtxt) creates an ASCII text file containing field Help text for a product line and system code, or for one or more form IDs in a system code. You can make changes to this text file in a word processing or translation program and load it back into the Environment using the Load Help Text utility (lddoctxt).

Dump Form Help Text Utility

The Dump Form Text utility (dmpscrtxt) creates an ASCII text file containing form Help text for a product line and system code, or for one or more form IDs in a system code. You can make changes to this text file in a word processing or translation program and load it back into the Environment using the Load Help Text utility (lddoctxt).

Dump Data File Help Text Utility

The Dump Data File Text utility (dmpdftxt) creates an ASCII text file containing data file Help text for a product line and system code. You can make changes to this text file in a word processing or translation program and load it back into the Environment using the Load Help Text utility (lddoctxt).

Load Help Text Utility

The Load Help Text utility (lddoctxt) loads translated Help text from an ASCII text file created by dmpfldtxt, dmpscrtxt, or dmpdftxt into the Environment.
