Language N1 and N2 in one form

Hi,

I have a .sib file, which consists of two languages "Deutsch" and "Englisch". It is the same for 49 forms, except for one, which has in the .sib file only the languages "Language N1" and "Language N2".

This is only in the .sib file, not in the form itself. Don't know where this come from but I don't know how to change it in the .sib file. ?

Merging with a newly created .sib file of the form didn't help..

Regards

Thomas

This looks like your SIB file was saved when this form contained the auto-generated language names. To fix this:
1. Open this SIB file into SIL Editor
2. Select some other form (with valid language names) in the tree
3. Click in menu "Tools|Langauge Names..."
4. Modify somehow both languages, i.e. "Deutsch1" and "Englisch1" and click OK.
5. Repeat 3. and 4. to modify languages back to "Deutsch" and "Englisch".

This should update language names for all forms and you will have correct names in all components.
Hope this helps.
