Starting in iNotes 9.0.1 Social Edition, customizers have the ability to override individual strings. You do it by adding a new properties file in the Extension Forms File (Forms9_x) and including the string overrides. Here's an example.

Say you want to change the strings that go with the checkboxes at the top of the mail form:



First, open the main Forms9 file and look for the appropriate language properties file. The properties files that contain the strings are named dwa_xx.properties, where xx is the two letter language code. If you want to override English strings, you would use dwa_en.properties. The properties files are in the Resources - Files section of Form9.nsf.

Then, look for the strings you want to override. The checkbox strings use these properties:

L_DELIVERYOPT_HIGHPRIORITY=High priority
L_DELIVERYOPT_RETURNRECEIPT=Return receipt
L_DELIVERYOPT_SIGN=Sign
L_DELIVERYOPT_ENCRYPT=Encrypt
L_DELIVERYOPT_KEEPPRIVATE=Keep Private
L_DELIVERYOPT_CLASSIFICATION=Mark Subject Confidential

Once you have the string properties, create a new properties file with the same name -- dwa_en.properties in this case -- in the Resources - Files section of your Extension Forms File. Add the properties that you want to override along with the new strings. In this example, we'll just abbreviate the strings:

L_DELIVERYOPT_HIGHPRIORITY=Hi
L_DELIVERYOPT_RETURNRECEIPT=Rcpt
L_DELIVERYOPT_SIGN=Sgn
L_DELIVERYOPT_ENCRYPT=Enc
L_DELIVERYOPT_KEEPPRIVATE=Prvt
L_DELIVERYOPT_CLASSIFICATION=Conf

Save the changes and restart the server. The new strings will appear the next time you use iNotes:
