Error description

• Problem
  Exporting to html when a Japanese locale fails when you have a D
  OORS tables in the module. You get a DXL error and the exported
  is halted before completion.
  
  To Reproduce
  1. Start DOORS with a Japanese U/I (default for Japanese OS or c
  hange your regional settings to be Japanese)
  2. Create a module with DOORS tables
  3. Go to 'File ? Export ? Html...'
  4. Select any option. (Layout: Book or Table, Export: Current or
   All Linked  )
  5. Got DXL error 'Unknown Object attribute (Main column attribut
  e)...'.
  
  DXL error:
  
  -R-E- DXL: ?utils/libhtml.dxl:990? ??? Object ?? (??????)
  ???????:
          ?utils/libhtml.dxl:1314?
          ?utils/libhtml.dxl:1463?
          ?utils/libhtml.dxl:1823?
          ?utils/libhtml.dxl:1985?
          ?C:\DOORS\9203/lib/dxl/standard/export/html.dxl:87?
  
  (also attached)
  
  Possible Workarounds
  A workaround is to start DOORS in English U/I on Japanese OS (by
   renaming ja_JP.res), exporting is successful even with Japanese
   contents.
  Alternatively, you can change your regiional settings to English
  .
