Free basic applications software for windows

Localization Guru is a software tool for Visual Basic programmers that enables a Visual Basic application to support multiple languages. The programmer develops the application in his native language and then exports all of the native language text from the application into a language database.
The linguist who performs the translation uses the Localization Guru Language Editor to translate the native text in the language database into one or more foreign languages that also are stored in the language database.
When the application program runs in a foreign locale it opens a language database, selects the desired language, and all of visible text of the applications user interface appears in the selected foreign language.
Localization Guru application has a mechanism to handle localization of any arbitrary ActiveX control that you can place on a form. Some ActiveX controls store the text that needs to be localized in obscure places within the control.
This is not a problem with Localization Guru because of an event callback mechanism whereby the localization engine gives the event routine an opportunity to localize the text stored in a control before the engine attempts to perform this task. The application programmer can easily add a few lines of code to the event routine to handle any unusual controls that are used in the project.
