Updating ProductLanguage and ProductCode Properties

Updating ProductLanguage and ProductCode Properties

The ProductLanguage property must be updated to the numeric language identifier (LANGID) for the new language. In the case of the localization example, the value of the ProductLanguage property must be changed from the LANGID for English (1033) to the LANGID for French (1036) in the Property table.

The value of the ProductCode property in the Property table must be changed to a new, unique value when localizing a database because a localized product is considered a different product. For example, the German and English versions of an application are considered two different products and must have different product codes. See Product Codes.

Use your database table editor to update the values of the ProductCode and ProductLanguage properties in the Property table. Do not reuse the GUID shown if you copy this example.
