During installation of DB2, the country, codepage and
regional settings are established. You can, however, change these
settings after installing DB2. This includes changing regional settings
such as code page, country language (for monetary, date, and numeric
formatting) and time zone. When a new connection to a database is made,
the database manager uses these new values.

You must ensure that your regional settings are set correctly. DB2
may not produce the expected results if the country, code page, or regional
settings are incorrect for the intended language.

Table 38 shows the languages into which the DB2 messages are translated.
Note: | The code page values in the table that follows are also used as directory names on DB2 CD-ROMs. For example, a reference to x:\language\win32\install would be x:\en\win32\install for English. For more detailed information on the languages and code pages support, refer to the Administration Guide. |
