Setting the LANGUAGE option

FM/CICS uses the LANGUAGE option set in the FM/CICS options module, FMN3POPT. This setting is used for all FM/CICS messages and panels.

Therefore, if you are using a language other than English, you will need to set the LANGUAGE option in FMN3POPT to one of the values shown in Keyword values for the LANGUAGE option. For example, to use French messages, specify LANGUAGE=FRENCH.

You will need to do this if you are using Japanese, even if you have installed the File Manager and FM/CICS Japanese component.

See Changing the default options and Changing the default options for information on how to do this.
