Change date language

Hi guys!
Using forms 10g , my application has a radio button that gives the user the possibility to select the language (french/english). I would like to change the way date is displayed depending on the user's choice. I use :
forms_ddl('alter session set nls_date_language=''FRENCH''')
forms_ddl('alter session set nls_date_language=''AMERICAN''')
to switch from example: 12-MAI-2007 to 12-MAY-2007. But it does not work. when I tried the alter command in SQL PLUS it works.
Do you have any idea?
thank you
gbardet

Yes, Kevin you are right., Instead,this note are obsolete Note:112389.1
Forms NLS settings override the NLS settings of the server.
Using FORMS_DLL ('ALTER SESSION SET .....'); will change the NLS_... in the
server not in Client.

I DO remember them but Apple chose to put them in Japanese and I can not change the language on Manage my Apple ID so I do not know if I made an error ,it threw me off , it was the wrong question Where did you fly to on your first Aiplane trip ? then I was unable to enter until 8 hours then called Apple Japan 4 times each time threy asked me would you like to speak with an English speaker,I said yes then they told me sorry today is Sunday no English speakers ,but they refused to speak Japanese, then I called 5th time and a kind guy could speak English we were on 1and 1/2 hours he got me to log in but the reset key chain could not be completed still pending.
He said do not mess with that ! then I got a text from somewhere to reset 4 pins suddenly it was very strange I said to him that I got this pin this morning but it said you can use maximum 3 hours it had a UK number and I told him I do not like this and will not enter the code he said do not do it if it is from the UK and then I said to him ok you did a lot to help but we can not go any further ! and we cut of I went back to my computer to re do the ID but I found everything a mess so I call and a stupid sounding Japanese women with a squeaky voice came on I was calm at first and they want your phone number your IMEI number your iPhone serial number date of birth Address email address it takes 10 munutes to check then they ask what are you caling about so I try to explain my keychain is broken or problems with language security questions and can not change my pasword because the security question have failed me so it is ONE BIG HEADACHE AND I START I GET STRESSED she says Do want an ENGLISH speaker ,I say yes ,that guy i talked to earlier but I never got his name and first time I ever talked to him but they said he is not here so I said ok and then she said today is sunday so call back in the morning ,I said ,well ok in Japanese but they make you feel stupid because they do not want to speak Jap@anese with none natives and they are to busy,And they feel that I should not bother them ,then I say that Apple Japan is trying to refuse Apple foreign customers and then she wants to hang up and ask me to visit the shop ,but they are the same I have a very bad time with Apple Japan since they do not discuss software problems or security with customer meaning if you have a problem they ask you to come on a time 20 minutes max so they do hardware test and say you phone is fine then I say no I can not reset my ID they say you must call call centre so I am going around in circles ,When I call English it is usually Australia so if my problem is in Japan surely if do not want me to talk to them in Japanese and they ask me to call Australia but every time my call charge is expensive after asking them is this free because I have Apple care they say yes but when the call goes to Australia 0120 277 535 it might change to paid call so I call then I have to ask is this charging they say we can not give you that information ! so what can I do I have have been at the computer and phone all day on my day off work and in tre week I am so busy and can not use my phone I can not work without it ,this new technology for you ,they can not cope with the fact that the customer have problems yet they do not want to deal with us because they can not solve it and so it shows them to be useless they like to walk around in their cool tee shirts and retro shop but when it comes to functionality we are unwelcome they got the money so do not return because apple is perfect that nothing should go wrong .
But it does somehow my English security answers do not work on a Japanese Question especialy if I did not choose that question I set up the multiple choice In English and wrote the answers in English or Roman and set them langauge preferences in English, do you really think you can correctly write english name or word in Japanese they write a police patrol car pato caa パトカア　they do not have r and l .So it is my choice to make my security easy for me and as difficult for others to hack.But they also have patororoo choo meaning ' now patrolling ' so why they have pato caa patrol car and patoro patrol and have thousands of Chinese words kanji they can find patrol.
I am getting off the topic but I am at a loss to fix this problem when they hold the keys and i have all the info to verify my ID.

How to change sap-language parameter at runtime

Hi
I want to create a Change Language button on an webdynpro Application. I know that the parameter is determined during url creation, but i need the to give the user the posibility of changing the language without closing the browser and logging out etc.
My idea is to us an Outbound plug assigned to lets say a Button. The plug is connected to an Inbound plug og the very same Window. So actually the Application will reload.
The action on the button is like this
data: l_language type sy-langu.
l_language = cl_wd_runtime_services=>get_url_parameter( name = 'sap-language' ).
wd_this->fire_language_plg( ).
Then i read the current language - i.ex: E
But of course i will need to change the parameter sap-language to the new language - lets say: K
But how?

Hi,
As far I know, there is no way to get the current url in browser. Alternately, you can get the url parameters and then construct the url with the parameters.
write the below code in HANDLEDEFAULT method of Window:
DATA: lt_parameters TYPE tihttpnvp.
*Get URL params
Wdevent->get_data(
EXPORTING name = if_wd_application=>all_url_parameters
IMPORTING value = lt_parameters ).
*Construct URL
CALL METHOD cl_wd_utilities=>construct_wd_url
     EXPORTING
       application_name = 'APPL_NAME' " your appl name
       it_parameters    = lt_parameters " to this params itself you can append the sap-language
     IMPORTING
       out_absolute_url = lv_url.
you may refer this document: Read URL Parameters in Web Dynpro ABAP

How can i change the language from spanish to english on a palm 750 that i just bought in spain?

hi
can anyone tell me if it is possible to change the language on a palm 750 from spanish to english? I just bought this phone in spain and can not use it well as everything is in spanish
please let me know how to change this if possible
Post relates to: Treo 750 (AT&T)

Hello and thank you for using the Palm Help Forums!
For this device, you will need to perform a hard reset to be able to set the language. A hard reset will erase all data on the device and restore settings to factory default. You will want to make sure you back up your information to a computer (via Activesync) before performing this action.
To do a hard reset you will need to remove the battery. Press and hold the end call button (red key) while putting the battery back in the device. Continue holding the end call key until the loading bar at the bottom of the screen completes. Once you see the loading bar disappear, release the end call button and you will be prompted on the screen, Erase all data? Y or N? Press up on your 5 way navigator to confirm this.
Once the device boots up you will be prompted for what language you want. I hope this helps!

Hello Shaholeh87,
Do you see a Globe icon on left hand side of your Spacebar if yes try pressing that and see if you get an option of changing the keboard language (this will work if you have Multiple language set on your iPhone from Settings>General>Keyboard>International Keyboards and added a keyboard in Arabic Language before )
Or you can get your iPhone in Recovery Mode and Restore it to Factory settings but you will lose all your current Data that you have on your iPhone.
To Restore your iPhone by taking it in Recovery Mode you can follow the below steps :
Follow the process mentioned below step by step to get your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad working.
Make sure you have Latest Version of iTunes (11.1.3) Downloaded and Installed on your Computer, if not then you can download the latest version of iTunes from the Link below.
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Now once you have the Updated version of iTunes installed on your computer follow the below steps to get your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad in Recovery Mode and Then restore it to factory settings
Open iTunes Application on your computer and then start the process step by step
1>Disconnect your device from the computer (if connected). The process won’t work if you start with the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad connected to the computer. Leave the cable connected to the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad, as you will be reconnecting the iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad to the Computer later in the process.
2>Power down your device. Turn off your device by holding down the Power button ( On Top right corner of iPod). When the power slider appears, slide it to the right. Wait for your device to comepletely shut down before continuing.
3>Press and hold the Home button (Home Button is located at bottom of your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad screen/display). With the Home button held connect the device to your computer with the USB cable. When reconnected, your device should turn on.
(If the low battery screen appears, charge your device for a few minutes and try the process again.)
4>Continue holding the Home button. After a few moments, you will see the "Connect to iTunes" screen on your device. This screen is a picture of an arrow pointing from a USB cable to the iTunes logo. When you see the screen you can release the Home button.
5>iTunes will display a message stating that a device in recovery mode has been connected. From there you can proceed to restore your iOS device. Once you see this message click on OK and then click on Restore
Once you click on Restore iTunes will download the Latest available version of iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad software (ipsw file) in your computer and after the download is completed the same will be restored in your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad. You will see the Download process and Restore process on top of your iTunes screen. Once the restore is completed your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad will automatically restart and you will see a message that iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad has been Restored and will connect after restart.
Now you will have to follow some steps on your iPod Touch/iPhone/iPad to Customize your Device for First Use.
Hope this process will help you

Change default language for SharePoint Online Sub-Site

Hi Guys,
Am trying to create multiple sub-sites using a custom site template in SharePoint Online. The default language of the Site Template is English. But I want to create sites for difference languages.
There is a option to setup multiple languages on the site and change the browser preferences. But we want that anyone irrespective of the language, should see the site in the language it has been configured for, For instance France site should display data
in French irrespective of any user see it.
To accomplish this, I was trying to find if there is a way to change the default language of the site after we create it.
Can some one give me an idea if we can achieve this behavior or if there an alternate to do it ?
Thanks,
Nutan
Nutan Sharma

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to change the default site language.
There is no supported way to change the default language of a site collection, once it has been created.
There is a way to change it by modifying the content database using SQL Management Studio(though it is not supported), you can refer to the article below to change the default language in an existed site.

How to change "Regional Language" in iPad air

Hello, I use an iPad air with iOS 7.0.4.
I was wondering how to change the regional language in ipad air. I mean exactly what I said, I know how to change a region, and I know how to change the language. I need to change the regional language. Whenever I choose my own religion, the date, time, battery etc. are all shown in my region's language instead of English. This is irritating since the time 'am' and 'pm' translations are stupid as he'll. Furthermore, the text is harder to read because of the font.
All said and done, I need to completely irradiate that language from displaying while not changing the region. Plus, I do think that the regional settings option should be in the settings (like no matter which region you are in, you should be able to choose the language, date time format, temperature in c or f etc.)

It's not possible yet to do what you want (unless by chance you can pick another region which natively combines the language with the other settings you want). To ask Apple to fix this, use

Problem, change the language with dynamic text

I am looking for a way to change simply the language of my flash animation
I work with flash cs4
of course I got Mylocale.as:
import mx.lang.Locale;
class MyLocale extends mx.lang.Locale {
static function start():Void {
var langCode:String = xmlLang;
currentXMLMapIndex = 0;
xmlDoc.load(xmlMap[langCode][0]);
static function setXMLLang(langCode:String):Void {
xmlLang = langCode;
and different xml files in the same folder than my swf file
in string , I ticked : "replace strings automatically during the execution"
with a default language (I am wondering if the problem is not from there)
if I tick: "replace strings manually using the scene language " or "replace strings via actionscript"
my code does not work.
then I kept: "replace strings automatically during the execution"
in my flash animation I have several scenes (pages)
p1, p2, p3, p4
in p1
I created a language bar
then 2 layers inside
Layer--action:
langListener = new Object();
langListener.change = function(eventObj) {
var target = eventObj.target;
var newLang = target.selectedItem.data;
MyLocale.setXMLLang(newLang);
MyLocale.start();
lang_cb.addEventListener("change", langListener);
// Force Japanese
lang_cb.selectedIndex = 1;
lang_cb.dispatchEvent({type:"change"});
Layer--language ex Fr:
// Forces combobox to have the correct value
on (release) {
var component = _parent.lang_cb;
for (var i=0; i< component.length; i++) {
var item = component.getItemAt(i);
if (item.data == "fr") {
component.setSelectedIndex(i);
component.dispatchEvent({type:"change"});
break;
ex Ja :
// Forces combobox to have the correct value
on (release) {
var component = _parent.lang_cb;
for (var i=0; i< component.length; i++) {
var item = component.getItemAt(i);
if (item.data == "ja") {
component.setSelectedIndex(i);
component.dispatchEvent({type:"change"});
break;
When I change the language in p1 , the language is also modified in p2, p3 and p4
however , after a navigation in p2, p3 and p4 , once I come back in p1 , the default language is back automatically although I did not touch the language bar!!
I don't know how to solve the problem
to my mind , the script reset itself each time I come back on p1
is there a way to keep the saved settings even when I am back on p1 until I modify manually again the language bar
thanks a lot

Change Date Format in MSDS report

SAP EHS expert:
I would like to change Date Format when printing MSDS in different languages. For example, print date in MM.DD.YYYY format when printing MSDS in English, but print date in YYYY. MM. DD format when printing MSDS in Chinese.The Generation Variant setting is MM.DD.YYYY because most of time we print that MSDS in English.
Does any one know how to do it?
Thanks
Tina Wu

hi,
create a new generation variant for the Report template and select the date format that you want in the new GV. While printing the report template select the generation varient created for the required date format.

How can I change dates to the UK format, DD/MM/YY, in Mac Numbers?

How can I change dates in Mac Numbers to the UK format of DD/MM/YY? When I correct them individually they automatically return to the US format.

Open System Preferences, then click the "Languages & Region" pane in the first row.

Macro won't change the language of some characters - GUI input works fine

I have an issue where certain characters in documents are in the SimSun font and the language is set to "Chinese (PRC)". I wrote a macro that successfully changes the font from simsun to another font, but it doesn't work if the language is Chinese
(PRC) and perhaps others, but this is the only case I have found so far.
It works fine if the language is English to begin with. Even more frustrating is that fact that, if I "Select All -> Language USEnglish" via the GUI after I run the SimSun change macro, the characters that the macro already worked on will change
appropriately.
However, if I try to change the language with a macro it doesn't work. I can literally record my actions that work as a macro, but when I run the macro, it doesn't work.
Does anyone know what causes this behavior? Is there any way to fix it?
This is what I use.
Selection.WholeStory
Selection.LanguageID = wdEnglishUS
Application.CheckLanguage = False
Thanks!

Edit: I'm currently working with Word2013 but I know this same behavior is replicated in word 2010 on a different computer.
Okay, here is some test data:
https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?cid=608A603435D13670&resid=608A603435D13670%21111&app=Word
and here is the data after I run the macro:
https://onedrive.live.com/view.aspx?cid=608A603435D13670&resid=608A603435D13670%21116&app=Word
If I manually (through the GUI) select all and set the language, the text comes out fine. However, those steps have no effect when run as a macro, even if I record them and they while they work correctly.
I actually can't seem to change the language of Chinese (PRC) at all with a macro but the GUI does seem to work.
Here is the full code that I am running. It's got a few extra lines in there because I was trying to figure out if I could get it to change the language to English somehow:

How to change month language in fmt:formatDate ?

That's it all.
I put the following:
<fmt:formatDate pattern="YYYY MMMM" value="${detCotiz.mesAnio}"/>And shows date like "2008 July", but i need show dates in Spanish, like: "Julio 2008".
I'm sorry if that question is basic and is answered, but i didn't find a topic search in the forum.
Thanks a lot!

To change the language, change the locale. That specifices what language/version to use. One way to do that is to use the <fmt:setLocale> tag
Also your date pattern should be "yyyy MMMM" - lowercase y rather than upper case. Yes. It matters.
<fmt:setLocale value="es"/>
<fmt:formatDate pattern="yyyy MMMM" value="${detCotiz.mesAnio}"/>
