Hello,
in VB6 I used to translate my application by setting the tag-property of
all controls, menu-entries... to a number which has been linked to a
string (array). Then I went through all controls or a form, checked the
tag-property and changed the caption-property to the lokalized string.
This was working for me fine.
Therefore I wanted to use the same implementation in VB.net.
Unfortunately I found out, that menuitems and some other controls do not
implement a tag-property. I surely could use inheritance to create a
menuentry with a tag-property, but I think the menueditor of my #develop
environment would accept them.
I also tried to use the localizable-property of the form and then to
translate the controls but this does not work with my #develop and the
resources created with winres.exe do not seem to work with it either.
What other ways to translate my apps?
Thanks in advance,
Stefan
