Description

Use the Import-NAVApplicationObjectLanguage cmdlet to import a language into the Microsoft Dynamics NAV application objects. For example, if you have exported multilanguage files in the Microsoft Dynamics NAV Development Environment, or by using the Export-NAVApplicationObjectLanguage cmdlet, you can import the strings into another version of the same application objects.

Examples

EXAMPLE 1

PS C:\>Import-NAVApplicationObjectLanguage -Source .\TAB14.TXT -LanguageId "ESP" -LanguagePath .\ALL-ESP.TXT -Destination .\RESULT\

This example imports the ESP language into the Microsoft Dynamics NAV application object that is specified in the -Source parameter, TAB14.txt. The strings are imported from the text files in the ALL-ESP.txt file, and the result of the command is a text file in the RESULT folder, TAB14.txt, that includes captions in Spanish.
