 * I accidentally installed the english version of WordPress 3.2.1, and since I 
   wanted WordPress to be in Danish, I decided to just overwrite all the files.
   
   But for some reason, even though the correct language files are there, WordPress
   is still in English. So I’ve tried googling for a solution, but to no avail.
 * Can someone help me change the language from english to danish?
    I’ve tried looking
   through the settings.php files, but I can’t seem to find anything useful in there.
 * Thanks in advance
    //Dennis
