Using Cognos UI and Error String Customization Toolkit

IBM® Cognos® User Interface and Error String Customization Toolkit keeps track of the customized messages and user interface text in different versions of files used in previous customization projects.

When you customize subsequent versions of the product, you customize only new and changed strings. See Customizing Subsequent Versions of a Product.

After configuring Cognos UI and Error String Customization Toolkit, you are ready to customize message and user interface text. You can see the processing results in a log file created in the location that you specified for the Log_File variable during configuration.

In all locales, product copyright information must not be customized.

Important: After your customization project is complete, you must keep the files in the synchronization directory and in the reference directory for subsequent customization projects.
