Default 5 language Restriction WorkAround Tip (Freelancer)

Question

" BandAidProjectTip " 
 . Oh, Yes, this is just for a kind of quick purpose ONLY tip. 
 . 
 Let's say I have received a sdlxliff file only. It is a, Wow, German/UK pair ... far and far away from my "5" language setting. 
 Easy. 
 Open it with plain TextEditors - even Windows default NotePad is OK. 
 Use " Ctrl+F " command, your magic words is.. " source-language " 
 Press right arrow key several times, You see, " de-DE " part. Change it to your favorite source language. 
 Repeat the above step with " target-language " - actually it is located the next door. 
 . 
 Now, you can make a BandAidProject but perfect for TemporaryProject 
 . 
 Do not use it seriously. Right ? 
 . 
 Enjoy !!!

Hello Krupa- 
 Freelance licences are restricted to 5 languages. 
 Although i'm sure that users could come up with workarounds, I will emphasize that SDL will not provide any support when things go wrong when such 'bandaid' methods are applied. 
 We have correct channels to follow if languages need to be changed for whatever reason-
