Customizing ZDT/Db2 for national languages

You can customize ZDT/Db2 for national languages other than English.

If you are using Japanese and you have installed the ZDT/Db2 Japanese component, you might not need to perform any other customization for the Japanese national languages.

If you are using a language other than English or Japanese, you will need to perform the customization tasks listed in Summary of steps for customizing ZDT/Db2 for a national language. Perform ALL these steps (except Step 9).

You can also, optionally, translate the object list utility panel titles, column headings, and SQL statements. If you want to do this, perform step 9.
