How do I integrate the language file (sqlb_tr.ts) we downloaded and updated with the DB Browser for SQLite program to test it?

The .ts file needs to be compiled into a .qm file, which Qt (the framework behind DB4S) uses.

The Qt framework provides a command-line tool called lrelease that compiles the .ts file into a binary .qm (Qt Message) file.
This is part of the Qt SDK.

Simply run this
lrelease.exe C:\Path\To\Your\File\sqlb_tr.ts

This creates a .qm file in the same directory as the .ts file.
Then copy the .qm file to the 'translations' directory in DB4S main directories.
Once you're in DB4S, change the language as necessary.

I followed your instructions, but it gave an error. Did I miss a step?

You need to install Qt for this to work.

Qt is already installed. I translated the language file using QtLinguist.

I solved the problem. Thank you so much for your help.
When I opened the command prompt in the directory containing the lrelease.exe and language file, the .qm file was compiled.

Then you probably want to update your PATH to include the Qt binary directory to avoid this in the future.

I'm not sure if you mean the system path by PATH. This is my first time working with QT, so I'm having a hard time understanding.
