translating types

Hi, translating projection, point, line and area types does not work; when compiling, it complains about this. However, types are important items to translate. I'm on a hurry, because the planned stage is coming, and I've heard about "using AutoCAD", which is for me a big no-no-no. I think I could change this, but I would need translate types as fast as possible. What could I do to get types translated and working? Thanks, Roman
