C# to VB.Net Conversion Help

Hi Anuradhay,

I will try those links that you have commented.

But to give more info of what I have tried:

On the source code of the application that was in the website, and in the Form's Code, I tried changing it to VB.Net and I have included the code below:

The code that was part of the Form from the sourcode in C#:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using System.Globalization;
using Infralution.Localization;
namespace TestCultureManager
{
    public partial class MainForm : Form
    {
        public MainForm()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            UpdateLanguageMenus();
        }

        private void exitToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            this.Close();
        }

        private void UpdateLanguageMenus()
        {
            CultureInfo culture = CultureManager.ApplicationUICulture;
            englishToolStripMenuItem.Checked = (culture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName == "en");
            frenchToolStripMenuItem.Checked = (culture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName == "fr");
        }

        private void englishToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            CultureManager.ApplicationUICulture = new CultureInfo("en-us");
        }

        private void frenchToolStripMenuItem_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            CultureManager.ApplicationUICulture = new CultureInfo("fr-fr");
        }

        private void cultureManager_UICultureChanged(CultureInfo newCulture)
        {
            UpdateLanguageMenus();
        }
    }
}

And this is the code that I tried converting to VB.Net: (I did not get any errors compiling or running it, but it did not work). For the Infralution.Localization to be imported, I added the Infralution.dll file from the project that was included in the sourcecode bin folder

Imports System.Globalization
Imports Infralution.Localization

Public Class Form1

    Private Sub UpdateLanguageMenus()
        Dim culture As CultureInfo = CultureManager.ApplicationUICulture

        englishToolStripMenuItem.Checked = (culture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName = "en")
        frenchToolStripMenuItem.Checked = (culture.TwoLetterISOLanguageName = "fr" 
    End Sub

    Private Sub englishToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles englishToolStripMenuItem.Click
        CultureManager.ApplicationUICulture = New CultureInfo("en-us")
    End Sub

    Private Sub frenchToolStripMenuItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles frenchToolStripMenuItem.Click
        CultureManager.ApplicationUICulture = New CultureInfo("fr-fr")
    End Sub

    Private Sub cultureManager_UICultureChanged(ByVal newCulture As CultureInfo)
        UpdateLanguageMenus()
    End Sub

End Class

Select all Open in new window

Hi Experts,

I created a new solution and a new project, and to the project I have added the Infralution.Localization.dll into the reference of the project. Also added the control to the visual studio toolbox. After adding to the tool box I added it to the form.

But when I run the application, it gives me an error:

InvalidOperationException was unhandled

An error occurred creating the form. See Exception.InnerException for details.  The error is: Could not find any resources appropriate for the specified culture or the neutral culture.  Make sure "TestCulture.Form1.resources" was correctly embedded or linked into assembly "TestCulture" at compile time, or that all the satellite assemblies required are loadable and fully signed.

I really don't know what to do next.

Thanks in advance.

Thank you codeCruiser, i will look into it as you say.

Thanks Experts
