============================================== Senior Visual Basic Programmer For Internationalization Of 3 Software Programs ============================================== We are looking to develop a relationship with a Senior Visual Basic programmer to work on this project but also to maintain our software products moving into the future. We recently internationalized the code of our web site and marketing e-mails and localized them into English, German, French, and Japanese. We are now looking to do the same for our 3 software programs. We are looking for a Senior Visual Basic programmer to extract the English text from our programs and place it into variables in a language "resource" file. We will then give this resource file to our translators who will translate the English into German, French, and Japanese. Here is an example. For the text "Help File Index" the resource file would need 4 variables (one for each language): Select Case(language) Case "en" strLoc_Help_File_Index = "Help File Index" Case "de" strLoc_Help_File_Index = "Hilfedatei Index" Case "fr" strLoc_Help_File_Index = "Index de l'aide du fichier" Case "ja" strLoc_Help_File_Index = "ヘルプファイルのインデックス" End Select Depending on the amount of text found in the program, we may have one master resource file or it may make sense to have multiple resource files (e.g. one resource file for each screen in the program). The installer will ask the user to choose their language and save that setting in the registry or .ini file. The program will then use the resource file to dynamically display whatever language the user chose. The files will have to be converted to UTF-8 format to be able to handle the accented French and German characters as well as the Japanese characters. Buttons will have to be increased in width to be able to handle German and French text which is typically longer than English text. Here are the elements that needs to be internationalized: - Software Installers (created by NSIS) - Software Programs - Help Files - Advisor Letters - Buttons - Images - Date and time stamps You do not need to be an expert in internationalizing code. We just went through the process with our web sites and can guide you on how the code should be setup. However, you should be a senior Visual Basic programmer who has a solid grasp of coding. Here are the qualities of the ideal candidate: - Senior level Visual Basic programmer - Detail oriented - Fast and accurate coder - Ability to follow instructions and project requirements - Communicates clearly - Tests their own code and delivers solid betas - Has the necessary time available to put into this project - Will be available in the future to maintain the code and work on new projects - Has experience with internationalizing code (not required) To be considered for this project, please e-mail me the following: 1. Your resume 2. Links to download 3 Visual Basic programs you have worked on 3. Why you think you're a good fit for this project I am looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi, I have worked in the past on globalization and localization of applications and understand what it takes to do the same. In these applications the hard coded strings were moved from the application to resource files. In one of the assignment as we were dealing with almost 20 to 30 applications, a master sheet was also maintained to ensure consistency among translated strings. I mean the idea was to ensure that same string should not be sent to translators twice. (e.g. if there is message "Are you sure you want to delete" is appearing in multiple applications then it is sufficient to send this string only once to translator. Additionally care was taken to check if there were parameters in hard coded strings. (e.g. "You attempted to withdraw USD 5000 which is more than limit of 1000"). Let me introduce myself as an expert VB programmer. I have worked on VB versions 3.0,4.0,5.0,6.0, VB.Net 2003, VB.Net 2005, VB.Net 2008,VB.Net 2010 with back ends like MS Access 97,2000, 2003, 2007, 2010 SQL Server and Oracle. I have more than 10 years of experience to my credit. I have also worked on advanced VB features like making of ActiveX Exe, ActiveX dlls, OCX, Win32 API, multi-threading etc.. I fully understand on this highly competitive site how important it is to provide high quality work. My prime focus is 100% customer satisfaction. I would be happy to answer any queries that you may have. Looking forward to working with you. Thanks & Regards FineCoder

Thanks for inviting me to your project. I've been working as a developer for 17 years and have worked with several languages during my career. But I've been working with Visual Basic since version 4 until more recently with Visual Studio 2010 so I feel really comfortable with it. I did a similar project a long time ago but with an Access application, it was an accounting software, I had to translate it from English to Spanish. It wasn't exactly as what you want to do but I just wanted to mention it. I'm not sure if you need me to work full time, but for now I can offer a you couple hours a day. I'm currently working in other projects too. Spanish is my native language but I also speak English and French. Can you give me your email address to send you my resume? I don't think I have any examples of finished projects, only pieces I guess, I use to work as a consultant so, my work has been mostly part of bigger projects.
