Character Strings For 3270 Logon Scripting Aren't Localized (172146)



The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft SNA Server 3.0
  • Microsoft SNA Server 3.0 SP1

This article was previously published under Q172146

SYMPTOMS

Some character strings used by the logon script process in the SNA Server-J 3.0 SP1 version of the 3270 Applet display in English instead of Japanese.

RESOLUTION

The character strings which were hard-coded in English were moved from the source codes to resource files. The Logon script process now properly handles these characters for the Japanese version of the 3270 applet.
