[support] any other way to import localisation files ?

[Larry]

Hi Nikolas
i tried " ini_set("memory_limit","16M");" and it didn't work
My site is on a  shared-server, but I have access to the shell
I am importing the .po file into the site from admin-localisation.

I have access to phpmyadmin. O am trying to import the Danish language

Are you suggesting I should just  copy  3 tables : locales_meta,
locales_source and locales_target and paste them in the query window
of my DB for drupal?

I still trying understand your export bit as I am trying to install
additional language so don't need to export  the .po file from  my
installation
