Install Microsoft .NET Framework
Cognos 8 BI Analysis requires Microsoft .NET Framework version 2.0 to be installed on all user
computers.
When you install Microsoft .NET Framework in a non-English operating system, Microsoft .NET
error messages, shortcuts, and utilities appear in English.
For a language other than English, you can apply the Microsoft .NET Framework Language Pack
to view error messages, shortcuts, and utilities in the language of your operating system. For example,
if your operating system is French and you installed Microsoft .NET Framework, you must also
apply Microsoft .NET French Language Pack.
