Exporting Text Strings and Locale-Specific Attributes
You use the Locale Management Utility to export strings and other locale-specific attributes to an external file. The file type of the external file can be text (.txt) or XML Localization Interchange Field (.xlf). NOTE: Microsoft Excel.xls files are not accepted by the LMU utility.
To export strings and other locale-specific attributes
- Choose Tools > Utilities > Locale Management.
The Locale Management Utility appears.
- In the Options tab, under Languages, select the Source and Target Languages.
NOTE: When exporting strings and other locale-specific attributes, be sure that your Tools language mode and the LMU source language are the same.
- Under Objects, select the applications or projects that you want to export.
- Click the Export Tab.
- Select whether you want to export Strings only or all localizable attributes.
All localizable attribute includes translatable strings and other locale-specific attributes, such as the width and height of controls. These attributes may be different for different locales.
- Click Export.
The Save As dialog box appears, set to the SIEBEL_TOOLS_ROOT\OBJECTS directory of your Siebel Tools installation directory.
- Enter a file name, choose a file type, and then click Save.
- If you have selected All localizable attributes, the available file type is.slf.
- If you have selected String attributes only, the available file types are.txt file or.xlf file.
