Several translation tools are available from this website - both free and paid. These include:


1.   Translate & Speak (free/paid)

      This application uses the online Google Translate service to translate text between any of the 109 supported languages.
      It also includes a text to speech feature based on the natural voices for almost 40 languages that are available free in Windows.





      The application is supplied FREE as an Access 'executable' file (ACCDE). This means that program code is NOT available for viewing.

      If you would like full access to the program code , this can be purchased at a reasonable price.
      An ACCDB file will then be supplied with full program code so you can modify the application or use parts of it in your own applications.

2.   Access Application Translator (paid)

      This application is scheduled for release in November 2023.

      It uses Google Translate to translate all Access form/report captions and control tip text to another language.
      Message boxes, input boxes and status bar text can also be translated.

      Its intended use is to change the language used in applications for clients whose native language is different to that used in development.
