<div><p>This example contains the steps necessary for creating a locale.

The example also shows how to enable the locale.</p>

<p>Steps for enabling the locale are:</p>
|
||
|
|
<ol><li>Create (or have ) a library and a source physical file.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Copy an existing locale source file definition member (to a library and

|
|
source physical file).</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Edit the copied locale source file member if you need to customize any
|
||
|
|
of the categories within the locale source.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Create the locale object.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Enable the locale object by using system values or parameters on the user
|

|
|
profile.</li>
