About Supported Globalization Codes

If you are building a multilingual application, it is important to understand how globalization codes affect the way in which your application runs. These codes are set automatically based on the application-level Globalization attributes you select.

NLS_LANGUAGE and NLS_TERRITORY determine the default presentation of numbers, dates, and currencies.

Table 16-6 describes the globalization codes in Oracle Application Express.
