  • Modified logic for concatenating multiple texts for translation with the Microsoft Translator.
  • The fix in version 6.03.0008 only worked on the controls tab, but broke the logic for the source code tab!

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0009 (Mar 28, 2010)

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0008 (Mar 28, 2010)

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0006 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • Catch errors initialising the soap interface for the Microsoft Translator and disable the feature. (An error is generated by the function SoapClient30.MSSoapInit2 if there is no network connection.)

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0005 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • Copy WDSL definition for Microsoft Translation Web Service to target machine and intialise the soap interface from this local file.
  • If the translation limit is hit during online translation, quit the operation (rather than showing the same message box over and over again).

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0004 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • Option to indicate the status of each translation with the background colour in the excel export.

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0003 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • Installation changes, in particular for Windows Vista
  • Admin privileges required
  • Controls database and global database copied to Program Data directory (instead of Program Files)
  • Tutorial programs copied to Common Documents directory
  • Item added to Start Menu with options:
  • Help
  • Open tutorials directory
  • Uninstall
  • Command added to help menu in Add-In to open the tutorials directory
  • SQL in translation memory dialog modified (hopefully faster)

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0002 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • Improved logic for Microsoft Translator. Multiple translations are sent as a single request which improves the performance and avoids a throughput limitation on the server. In an extreme case, the Add-In will delay to avoid performing more than 50 requests per second.

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0001 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • Template file for project database updated (database revision 7).
  • Hard coded selection of Chinese(Simplified) (PRC and Singapore) and Chinese(Traditional) (HK,Macau,Taiwan) for Microsoft Translator.

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.03.0000 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • First version with support for Microsoft Translator.

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.02.0120 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • Minor bug fix in error handling on saving all translations to the global database.

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.02.0119 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • Read Name and Index properties of a control using the CallByName function instead of using the VBControl Properties collection. This may fix a problem with some (badly behaved?) controls.
  • Function to check the version of the controls database was previously called on initialising the Add-In, but not if you changed the path to the controls database. This function is now called whenever the controls database is opened.

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.02.0116 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • New handling of empty strings in the controls grid. The previous version allowed you to select a property with an empty string for translation, but did not assign a string ID to it. This led to several errors, in particular in the Excel export. (Note, that empty strings are usually ignored anyway, but that you can change this behaviour in the options dialog.)

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.02.0114 (Mar 28, 2010)

  • New context menus on check boxes and sun/moon icons (similar to the context menus in the .NET version).

New in Multi-Language Add-In for VB 6.02.0107 (Jun 13, 2008)

  • Modification to the format of the global database, for compatibility with the Add-In version for .NET. Specifically, a new field IetfLanguageTag has been added to the Languages table.
  • Check box added to the (Program) Error dialog to suppress further errors during a scan. The errors are now written to the errors grid.
  • Large list box to select languages in the Add-Language and Original-Language dialogs (instead of a drop down list).
  • New field in the Translation Memory dialog to enter additional words to search for in the global database.
