Why 1033?

[Carl]

When I chase down the whole path to my GLOBAL.MPT file it's located in a
directory named "1033". Anyone know why it was named 1033? Is that just my
location, or is everyone like that?

Hi Carl,

I believe 1033 is the default directory for English installs. The
folder (1033) is the same for my install.

I hope this helps. Let us know how you get along.

Julie is correct for other languages and their equivalent number check this

Since I first tracked down my GLOBAL.MPT file I had been wondering what 1033
was all about, but no one seemed to know. Thanks Julie and Christophe!
