Description

Represents a language for Windows 2000.

The <language-ID> entry is a variable representing the entries under the Language subkey. It does not actually appear in the registry. This variable entry displays information which is common to the entries in the Language subkey.

Each entry in the Language subkey represents one locale supported by Windows 2000. If the locale is installed on the system, the value of the entry is the name of its internal supporting file. If the locale is supported but not installed, there is no value for the entry.

Each entry has the following format:

# LanguageID    REG_SZ    Filename | (no value)

For example,

0402    REG_SZ    l_intl.nls

This entry indicates that locale 0402 is installed on the system and is associated with file L_intl.nls.

0403    REG_SZ     

This entry indicates that locale 0403 is supported by Windows 2000, but is not installed on the computer.
