Qlikview Langage in the load scripts log files.

Hi,

Is there any way to know (in a load script) in which langage qlikview has been installed.

I try to get information from the scripts logfiles and sometimes QV has been installed in english and sometimes in french.

the result is that the information in the logfiles are differents:

'Execution failed' vs 'Exécution échouée'

How can I get that information to do the proper extraction ?

Thanks for your help

Philippe

Philippe,

it's a very interesting question. Even though "interface Language" is one of the "User Preferences", I couldn't find any QlikView functions or even macro APIs that would allow retreiving it. The only place I found it is in the Registry, under:

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\QlikTech\QlikView\Settings 7

So, you can read this registry setting using GetRegistryString() - seems to be the only possible option...

cheers,
