Using the MLOV Converter Utility to Convert Multiple Languages
The MLOV Converter Utility only upgrades one language at a time. If the target columns include data in more than one language, then you must run the utility for each language. For example, assume the ENU and DEU display values exist in a column that is enabled for an MLOV. If you run the converter in ENU, then the utility does the following work:
