Edit Any Language Registry entry

Specify whether users can alter data when a single language is displayed in a multi-language environment.

By default, when a single language is displayed in a multi-language environment, all display controls are disabled (greyed out) and users are unable to alter data. Setting the Edit Any Language Registry entry to true allows users to enter values when a single language is displayed. All values updated by the user via the data entry fields only update values for the language currently displaying.

Note: This Registry entry may be set on a system-wide, per user or group basis.
