Question:
Having a bad day...
I'm using composites and the description in the single role appears on the composite menu which is fine. However, I'm trying to find a way of entering a French translation for the single role description directly in the single role.
I can add a French translation in the composite but it obviously loses the translation as soon as you re-import the menu.
I suppose one option is to create a new top level folder called the same as the description but wondered if there's a better way?
I've tried downloading the role and opening as a .csv, copying the line for the description, inserting the line again but with 0001 instead of 0000, F instead of E and then the French translation but can't get it to upload.
It's only the actual description of the single role that's causing the problem.
any help appreciated

Answer:
Hi David
have a look at table AGR_TEXTS. I haven't got french loaded but do have the default German and English. if I look at a single role it has The role Description field in as position 0. Any of your comments in the text box at the bottom have numbers from line 1 onwards. Currently there are NO values in this table in language German for this role name. If I then login in in German, the role defaults through the English description. Maintain the role and give it a translated Description, it will save it in the German "DE" part of this table.
Do the people who need this translation ever log on in a language other than French? If not, then you need to maintain this either front-end in French logon mode or directly access the table somehow ...

Answer:
Hi Andy - THANKS!
Tried submitting a response earlier that seems to have dissappeared into the ether...
I logged onto DEV using FR as the default language and couldn't maintain the description as a programme needs running to allow none DE language maintenance.
Did that and then added the French versions in PFCG.
SUCCESS! Re-import using EN logon language retains the FR version.
Thanks again - you're a star
PS if there are 2 replies from me then this one is a duplicate...
Answer:
good news berryd, I'm glad it worked for you.
just out of interest, what was the program that needed running to let you maintain in other languages?
thanks
Andy
