Changing Project Area predefined language

Hi all,

I'm facing a problem related with language.

When I created a project area I chose English language but that was an error. Weeks later I realized that the configuration was wrong but I don't know (if possible) how to switch language to Spanish in order to see work item standard fields in Spanish.
Is it possible? Any idea?

Thanks!

Regards

This is not possible. When a project area is created in a specific
locale, all of the user-configurable data gets translated into that
locale (otherwise, it wouldn't be possible to really edit the process
configuration).

If it's still an option, your best bet would be to archive this project
area and create a new one. If you really need to keep the same project
area you *can* change all of the user-configurable data to be in another
locale, but it is not trivial. You'd need to manually rename all of the
iterations into Spanish and then also replace the Process Configuration
Source with the Spanish version. You could do this by creating a new
project area in Spanish and then copying the source XML from the new
project area to the old (note that this would wipe out any changes you'd
made).

Thanks Jared,
I will try to create a new project area and move existing workitems.
