Resolution

• Importing the English string table from a new project will allow the strings to be localized.

InstallShield stores string entries in the ISString table of the main project file (.ism file). InstallShield lets you export the string entries of a language to a text file, which you can send out for translation. After the strings have been translated, you can import the text files into the InstallShield project file.

Workaround

• The localized string table entries from the Developer version originally created project can be imported into InstallShield so the Identifiers will match.
• The English string identifiers can be changed to match the identifier from the localized strings.
