Problem
Most personal and office productivity applications, such as word-processing applications, are marketed internationally. To minimize development costs, software producers develop a single version of the program but have separate configurations for items such as menus and error messages that vary from language to language. Investigate a commonly used development tool for applications (called an integrated development environment), such as Microsoft Visual Studio. What tools and techniques (for example, Unicode data types and string tables) are supported for developing multilingual programs?
