[GNC] Settings in environment.local does not work

[redfrog2000 at outlook.com]

Mr. Ralls,
    Thank you for your advice. The display language changed to English when I added 
the heading [Variable] to the file environment.local.

Please remember to copy the list on all replies.



 Did you remember to lead off the environment.local file with the section heading
