Read why Sisulizer is the right localization tool
for all classic Visual Basic programmers

Sisulizer localizes classic Visual Basic in three ways

• Visual Basic source code localization
  Sisulizer analyzes the complete Visual Basic source files and can display and edit all forms and user controls in a visual environment.
  
• Visual Basic localization using Windows resources
  The software support Visual Basic projects that store the string in Windows resources.
  
• Visual Basic database localization
  If you build a mechanism to store all strings in databases, you can use Sisulizer's database translation option.

Visual Basic Source Code Localization

In source code mode, Sisulizer supports visual inheritance of Visual Basic. User controls that are defined in the same project are automatically mapped to the forms that use those controls. This allows you to get the best possible visual editing experience for classic Visual Basic.

A usercontrol providing visual inheritance in Visual Basic

Display in Sisulizer (Classic View, untranslated).

The small markers in User Data Path mean that this control is defined somewhere else in the project. In this case, the control is the Usercontrol automatically mapped by Sisulizer into the form, similar to the Visual Basic IDE. You should not ask for less comfort.

Does my translator see my source code?

While Sisulizer sees your Visual Basic source files, your translator does not see them in the free Translation Edition (optional he can see it if you want). Of course, the translators see all forms and user controls in Sisulizer's great What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get display (see the previous example). And the translator does not require a run-time or database driver to install the software.

Does Sisulizer change my source code?

There is no need to change source code or to add any kind of component to your project. Good to know - Sisulizer never changes a line of code or a property inside your source code originals.

I store my strings already in a database or resource. Why should I localize with Sisulizer?

While Visual Basic has a specific format for forms, you might already have localized your Visual Basic with a home-brewed solution. Some developers might store strings in resource files or in databases.
With Sisulizer you can use the storage method that you started with. Use Sisulizer's luxurious editor to maintain your resource files and database --and forget about translating things twice. Sisulizer stores all translations.

Re-use your existing translation efforts easily in updates and new projects.

Sisulizer does not forget any translation. If you update a large project, you do not lose control of what is already translated, what has changed, and what is new.

• Forget about teaching your translators how to work with databases.
• Forget about editing your resources in that small and glitchy Visual Basic resource editor using tiny fonts.

Upgrade to a state-of-the-art editor with Translation Memory, a luxury editor with undo and redo and full What-You-See-Is-What-You-Get with visual inheritance (if Sisulizer is used with your classic Visual Basic source code).

Have we mentioned that if you translate Classic Visual Basic with Sisulizer and you port later to VB.NET, you are not going to lose your translation? It's true!

There is no reason to wait with your software localization until you port some day. Your Sisulizer License covers all listed platforms with no extra costs. Start now with Classic Visual Basic and switch later to .NET, or use both platforms at the very same time. You can even have multiple platforms in one Sisulizer project. Enjoy the profits of multi-national and multi-language sales now.

For us Classic Visual Basic is still alive

For the Sisulizer team, classic Visual Basic is not a legacy product that we list merely to have a long platform list for marketing reasons.

Classic Visual Basic is still a platform used in myriads of existing solutions. It is impossible to convert them all economically to .NET platform. A lot of them must remain in classic Visual Basic.

While Sisulizer's developers are Delphi guys, you might think:

"Hey, do they understand VB?"

They do, because they are pushed and supported by active and experienced Visual Basic developers, who fell in love with Visual Basic Version 1 a long way back 1991 and kept developing in Visual Basic for the past 15 years.

Sisulizer is tested with their Visual Basic projects who reaching the limits of the VB 6 IDE. So, as long as there is a strong Visual Basic user base maintaining huge enterprise solutions, we say:

"Classic VB users - you are not alone and we still care about your day-to-day programming needs!"
