I am not sure on an existing translation, but using a simple text editor you can edit the files in the Datacad\Support Files\Messages and Labels folder as you need. Make sure to make a backup of the files before starting to edit the files and familiarize yourself with the formatting of the each file.

- DCADWIN.LBL & DCADWIN3.LBL: Datacad's in program menus (F# buttons)
- DCADWIN.MNU: Datacad's program menus at the top of the screen
- DCADWIN.MSG & DCADWIN3.MSG: Datacad's message line messages & dialog box text, etc.

You can replace the files in DataCAD 19\Support Files\Messages and Labels\ with these.

We now have French and Spanish editions of DataCAD 20 which you can download from the following links:

DataCAD 20 French Edition:
https://www.datacad.com/xxdemo/fr/DataCAD20Setup.exe

DataCAD 20 Spanish Edition:
https://www.datacad.com/xxdemo/es/DataCAD20Setup.exe

Note: You can enable DataCAD's built-in label file editor by setting the key, LabelFileEditor, to TRUE in the DEBUG section of DCADWIN.ini.

When the Label File Editor is enabled, you can [Shift] + Click on any left-hand menu button to display the corresponding Labels and Hints. Once you've made a change, select Update to update DCADWIN.lbl / DCADWIN3.lbl in memory. Then select Save to LBL File to update the files on the hard drive.
