where did you see this method ? I have not see this method in docs

Here: http://forum.openerp.com/forum/topic22023.html

And here: http://forum.openerp.com/forum/topic24407.html

Tried also an other option given, to create a user, set a different language for that user and import the descriptions in that specific language. In my case the default language was EN, second DE. It did the trick vice versa. All original descriptions changed to DE, all translated were still EN. So does not work either, I think the only way to do this, is in the database itself .... Until someone comes up with a module for this.

I made by importing data to ir.translation table however we have problems with new product names. (System translates some of the fields automatically by mixing up :)

is this offical documentation ?

I also tried all different kind of import formats but none worked until now :( - Is there really no solution for such an elemental task?!?

So is my assumption right that csv import is useless for multilanguage fields in v7? - Should we write a bug report or is this just something for the wishlist?!? At least it feels like a bug if a user has selected german as his language and imports somthing only to recognize that only the english fields are updated and not as expected the german ones.

I also found out that if you creat a product by csv and then upadte the products name through the csv the same name will be taken for all languages even if a differen (old) language tag is available for german?!? Does not matter what the user language is?!?

I saw also strange behaviour when importing with different language settings, so I stopped with experimenting and used the method I described above. Better solution is a module to import different languages for products and other translatable fields.
