# ODBC Translators Subkey
The values under the ODBC Translators subkey list the installed translators. The format of these values is shown in the following table.  
  
|Name|Data type|Data|  
|----------|---------------|----------|  
|*translator-desc*|REG_SZ|**Installed**|  
  
 The *translator-desc* name is defined by the translator developer.  
  
 For example, suppose a user has installed the Microsoft® Code Page Translator and a custom ASCII to EBCDIC translator. The values under the ODBC Translators subkey might be as follows:  
  
```  
MS Code Page Translator: REG_SZ : Installed  
ASCII to EBCDIC: REG_SZ : Installed.  
```
