user.language=
user.country=
Save this file on GFP Home. Ex.: C:\GFP\lang.conf
This exemple show how to force the use of English:
user.language=en
user.country=US
Then it's not necessary to use the bat file to start GFP and force a language usage

* When people open a GFP screen they begin to enter the data then click on New button, so the New button clear all fields and set the Save button to enable; and the user lost all data entered.
Now when the New button is clicked the data will be inserted on data base, it's not necessary to click on Save button, the Save button will be used only for updates.
