Hi,

I would like to include multi-language support in my vb program but im new to it...Is there any vb component i can use or just use module and class?.....Any suggestion or reference i can refer to to design multi-language structure in vb?

Thanks Very Much.

Well, there is no simple way. There are a few things to consider though.

1. You will need to store your strings either in a File UTF-8 encoding or in a Resource file. This is done so that you can read/write UniCode strings!

2. Standard VB controls are not UniCode aware! So you either need to create your own custom controls which do support Unicode or find free ones or buy a set.

3. You should get used to W (Wide character) API's that pass strings in UniCode format.

And thats it I think, I've covered the main obstacles.
