Hi there, Are we changing chemstation language? Is this possible?

Please explain your question. Do you mean written language or programming language?

First thank you for reply. I want change chemstation language. Its standart language is English and I want Turkish. I wrote a macro file and its work. But i changing only main Menu...such as picture .

I didnt change other menu. see picture


I can change dialog box, main menu. But i didnt change picture2 menu. I found language file but its cryptic.

C:\HPCHEM\CORE\LANGUAGE\ENUMENU.REG

I want change all menu; method and run control, data analysis etc. Are there any way?

Thank for read...

In the CD that is supplied with the ChemStation, look for a macro named MACTOOLS.mac. Copy this into the CORE directory and then load it into ChemStation. This macro will enable you to read the .reg files of the Chemstation. You will need to load the language register also into the Chemstation, using the macro. If you look around, you will see the text that you can change. Do not forget to first make copies of the files that you wish to change, otherwise you could have big problems.

Yes i did it Thank you so much dear GasMan.

Yes i did it but i changed all menu and save file "menu.reg" but i dont know load this reg file. I try loadObj command but nothing...

When you load the .reg file into the ChemStation to make your changes, you must save it under the original name. When ChemStation starts, it will look for these files, not the ones that you have named.

So in your example, you load C:\HPChem\Core\Language\Enumenu.reg into Chemstation, make your changes, and then save as C:\HPChem\Core\Language\Enumenu.reg. As I mentioned in an earlier reply, first make copies of the files that you wish to change before you start working on them.

You will also need to restart Chemstation after you have made the changes.

Thank for reply again. I loaded mactools and i changed menu. But there isnt menu file in C:\HPCHEM\CORE\LANGUAGE. There are ENUBATCH.REG, ENUCORE.REG, ENUMENU.REG, ENUTUTOR.REG in this directory. So picture;

But i didnt change those file. I changed _Menu so picture ;

There are Menu Label;

And i pushed save button. And it saved menu.reg file. This file is new. There isnt any directory in chemstation's. i saved enumenu.reg this file and, enucore.reg etc. but chemstation get error. i try load the new file file and i didnt. i try loadobj but nothing. Help. Thank you for read again.

I would not recommend that you work with the 'menu'.reg file. As mentioned in earlier messages, I suggest that you work only with the 'enumenu.reg' file ( after first making a backup copy). The ChemStation will read this file. I do not know the deep workings of the ChemStation, and it is quite possible that the ChemStation loads the enumenu.reg file and then creates the 'menu' object that you are seeing in the list when using the mactools macro.
