Defining the Language and Codepage

The language and codepage parameters are accessed from the computer where Oracle Studio is installed.

Perform the following steps to define the required language and codepage:

1. From the Start menu, select Programs, Oracle, and then select Studio.

2. Select and expand the required computer node from the Configuration Explorer.

3. Expand the Binding node.

4. Right-click NAV and select Edit Binding.

5. In the binding Properties tab, expand the misc node.

   The NAV binding Properties tab is shown in the following figure:

   Figure E-1 The Properties tab

   
   Description of "Figure E-1 The Properties tab"
   
   

6. Enter a valid value for the language. See NLS Language Codes

7. Optionally, in the codepage field, specify the codepage required.

   You can skip this step, and specify a language (see the previous step). In this case, a default codepage is used.

The following table lists the codepages:
