If it helps anyone, this is how I resolved step by step. Don't forget the IISreset at the end!
Go download poedit and install http://www.poedit.net/
Problem was fixed by editing the *.po file in your language directory. In my case I'm using en_US. My path is C:\inetpub\wwwroot\accounting\lang\en_US\LC_MESSAGES
Inside that folder is an po file called en_us-2.3.0-1. Open that and do a search for the term you want.
In our case search for Total Order EX Vat. It will show up as down at the bottom under source text. Whatever you want it to say type in the translation box below. In my case I changed it to say Total Order EX Tax.
Once you make your changes click the save button. I don't think you need to hit update
Recycle your web server.. I use IIS, so I did an IISRESET from an elevated command prompt.
Joe,
Hopefully I can shed some more light on the problem. i have downloaded poedit and can see all the changes you made from vat to sales tax etc.. Looks great. Having said that None of it shows up correctly when a report is run. Just to make sure I was right I deleted all the po and mo files from the accounting\language\ directory and everything still ran just fine, so I think there must be something stuck in memory. I have confirmed via diagnostics that the system thinks it's using my po file.. So i'm confused.
I'll keep troubleshooting, any help would be great.
Thanks
Bill
Ok Joe, Thanks for your help. +
I will see if I can figure out PO Edit.
Great product.

I have scoured the forum and found many helpful tips in getting my company setup. Thanks to all in advnace, and specifically the dev's. Thank you for your hard work.
My question has to do with form customizing. I have switched from English to US English and verified changes are correct. Still have an issue with references to VAT showing up on my quotes and sales orders. Specifically to the right of Sales Person which I just removed from doctext, and from the TOTAL ORDER EX VAT and TOTAL ORDER VAT INCL
I have searched for those lines and do not seem to be able to find. I would also like to remove the banking statement at the bottom.
Version is 2.3.12
Thanks in advance
