Please do so :-). As you may have recognized the en-manual is re-structed and this should also happen in de and the other languages, by updates or new translations. No worry about the entities they are definded. Once you took over the structure from en, there is an entity &reference.pgsql.constants; pointing to constants.xml file. Look at the constants.xml in en and see, if there is somethimg to translate. If yes copy it to de-tree, if no there is no need to copy this file (hope I am right :-)) as the build system will take this missing file from the en-tree. BTW, if you would like to add some infos to the constants feel free. Also don't hesitate to improve the structuring of the pgsql-reference file, if you like to. I just moved around the contents to fit the new structure and maybe you find some errors or logical issues. By Friedhelm
