===Migrating to a Newer Program Version===
When a new version of the program you are translating comes out, you don't have to start the translation from scratch. MozillaTranslator allows you to migrate your translation to the new version. It will also tell you which new strings were added, and which were changed, since the last version. Here's how:
#Get the language pack .jar files, just as you would for a new translation, as explained in the beginning of this article.
#From the File menu, select Manage Products.
#From the Manage products window, select the product you are upgrading and click the Edit button.
#Update the pathes to the .jar files of the new version. If applicable, don't forget to update the paths of the platform-specific files, by selecting the platform name and clicking the Edit button.
#When you are done, click OK, and Exit at the Manage products window.
#From the File menu, select Update Product.
#In the Update product window, select the product you are upgrading and click OK. You will see the Show which column dialog. Select the columns you want to display and click OK.
 
Now you will see a list of all the strings that have been added or changed since the last version. Translate or correct the translation of the strings, and when you are done, close the window.
 
To save the changes, select Save Glossary from the File menu.
