Re: French for Drill Down

["Leatta Welch" <leatta -at- mindspring -dot- com>]

If you are trying to say, for example,
"Drill down in the hierarchy of ___
(menus?), you could try "percez dans
l'hierarchie des menus." (hierarchie has
an accent aigu over the first e, but I
can't do it here.
You could also try "Cherchez en bas" or
"Descendez dans l'hierarchie"

My preference of these is Descendez.
To drill up, I would use "Ascendez dans
l'hierarchie"
For drill back, I would use "Revenez au
menu precedent." (The first two Es in
precedent have an accent aigu.

Regards,

Leatta Welch
