2506.0. "Translation tools" by BCFI::MLUNDGREN (Magnus Lundgren @JAR) Thu Feb 27 1997 08:13

Hi!

We are developping a framework written in Visual Basic. The tool is intended to 
be used in different markets around the globe, why all the texts and captions 
have to be translatable. Is there any good tool which can help with this task?

Since it is a framework, we expect our customers to make additions (new VB code) 
and we would like them to use the same tool. It should also be possible to 
separate texts that have been shipped by us and 'project added' texts in case 
the customer wants to upgrade to a new version of the product in the future.

The final product might eventually run in an environment where it is required 
that the language dependent texts are changed in run-time. A customer in 
Switzerland might want to be able to switch between German, French and Italian.

Any pointers will be appreciated.

Regards,
Magnus Lundgren
