The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Win32s version 1.2

SUMMARY

The help file for Win32s version 1.2 states that the following NLS files need to be installed in the <windows>\SYSTEM\WIN32S directory when you install Win32s version 1.2 with your application. However, if your Win32-based application is only targeting U.S. Windows, you do not need to install all these files. 

   .NLS files:

   CTYPE.NLS                             P_850.NLS
   LOCALE.NLS                            P_852.NLS

MORE INFORMATION

Use the following guidelines when shipping a Win32-based application that targets Win32s:

Ship National Language Support (.NLS) files corresponding to the market of the Win32-based application. For a Win32-based application released for an international market, ship all the .NLS files found in MSTOOLS\WIN32S\NLS. For a Win32-based application released for use only in the United States, ship P_437.NLS, P_850.NLS, and P_1252.NLS.

NOTE: When installing Win32s, be sure to remove the obsolete files. These are tagged in WIN32S\SETUP\W32S.LYT with Win32sSystemObsoleteFiles.
