Message Tools includes three basic executable files:
Each executable includes three basic tasks: Create XLIFF (see An XLIFF File), Update XLIFF, and Create MSG. These three tasks incorporate the functionality of some of the executable files included with the former internationalization tools set.
The following table lists the old executable file names (along with their descriptions) and shows you in which task you can now find that specific functionality.
Message Tools also includes a third executable file, MdbXliff.exe, for backward compatibility. You can use this program to convert old 16-bit Btrieve, DOS message database (MDB) files into XLIFF files for use by the new Message Tools.
