Copy field names to ML Caption for ENU

EvR · 2016-03-01

Hi all,

Is there an efficient way of copying all field names in a range of tables to the ENU ML caption?
Right now I have a bunch of POC tables I wish to put into production and it would be nice of they all had ENU captions, even though the field names are fine to show to the user. But I won't bother to manually copy/paste 500+ field names into the ML caption field just because it meets cfmd requirements

- tools>translate>export (you get a text file)
- open text file substitute P2818-L128 with P8629-A1033-L999 (this will "transform" the name property into the caption, just for fields)
- tools>translate>import (your modified text file)
Be sure to export a fob of all objects, just in case you screw up something

If you want to avoid the time stamp of the objects being changed by this, you can use the Import-NAVApplicationObjectLanguage cmdlet on the exported objects together with the modified text file and import the objects afterwards.
