In Release 12, Rapid install only installs American English. So, to add Arabic you need to do the following:

Author A.Kishore http://www.appsdba.info

- Run RapidWiz and install R12 with American English NLS (select Arabic during the installation). If you already have installed R12, go to OAM > License Manager and activate Arabic language. - From AD Administration, run Maintain Multi-lingual Tables (AD Administration Main Menu > Maintain Applications Database Entities Menu). - Apply NLS patch 6394500 - Run the Translation Synchronization Patch utility (adgennls.pl).
