The TRANSLAT.INI file is used to customize or localize log and error messages in the system. For instance, if you want the system's error messages to appear in a language other than US English, you can use this INI file to translate the error messages.
All messages must have a unique number. The error message section contains a complete list of numbers already assigned in the system. If the message is only used in the log message section, the number should appear in the error message section, followed by a comment stating that it is only used in the log section. This table shows how the numbers are assigned:

When you add message numbers and text to a library, use the next available message number in the section.
