By default, Microsoft Dynamics AX reads the text displayed in the user interface from the kernel text data file (*.ktd) stored in the bin directory of the Application Object Server (AOS) directory. You can have Microsoft Dynamics AX use a different kernel text data file by modifying a copy of the kernel text data file, choosing a location, and pointing an AOS instance to it.

  1. Open the Server Configuration utility (Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Microsoft Dynamics AX Server Configuration Utility).

  2. Verify that the currently selected AOS instance and configuration are the ones you want to modify.

  3. On the Application Object Server tab, in the Alternate bin directory box, type or browse to the location of the kernel text data file you want to point to, click Apply, and then click OK.
