This translates cust_W1W1_client_260.txt into English (United States), using
the equivalent to Country Base Versions.mdb translation database as the
source project. This translation database is described on page 16.
For more information about how to translate a customer database, see the manual
NLW User’s Guide.
6 When the translation is complete, export the target file as described below.
Before you export the translated file, you can use the Word Count feature to check the
number of words that have been translated compared to the number of words that
have not been translated. To check the word count, click Tools, Word Count.
You can use the AutoTranslation, Text Match option to get closer to a complete
translation. For more information about Text Match translation, see the manual NLW
User’s Guide.
Note that you should not manually translate strings from the old base version.
