You can change the VectorDraw resources in any language. 
To do this you need to have installed the MSVC++ environment. Here are the steps:

1. Make a copy of the default VDRAW's project, that is included in the full setup of VectorDraw.

2. Open the copied VDRAWRES project using the MSVC++. Go to Resource tab in workspace tree.

3. In each resource item right click and select properties, then change the language to your language.

4. Open Dialogs and change the displaying strings in buttons or texts controls.

5. Change the strings in String table.

6. Change the displaying strings in each menu item.

7. Change the cursors or bitmaps if is required.
   (Caution: Do not remove any item from string table, dialogs or menu)

8. From Menu->Project->Settings->Link tab->General change the output DLL name from VDRAWRES.dll to any name if you want.

9. Build the project.

10. Copy the final DLL output to the same directory as you register the OCX or in the window system directory. 

11. Now open your application project. In VDraw control change the property of VDrawRes to the name of the new DLL you previous build.

12. When redistribute your application you must also copy the DLL in the same folder with the OCX or 
    in the window system directory.
