Copy the entire contents of your resource file to Excel;
Copy the entire contents of the second column from Excel to Google Translate;
Copy the translated strings back to the second column of Excel;
Clear out your resource file;
Copy the entire contents from Excel back to your resource file.

Hope this helps. Should be easier than doing this programmatically.

Is there any program that reads the english resource file and gives out the french file or any other language specific file? – kalls Oct 18 '10 at 17:35
Pieter your idea sounds good if the program option doesn't work out. Thanks!! – kalls Oct 18 '10 at 17:36
Why won't the above work for you? Maybe that can help finding a utility that works for you. – Pieter van Ginkel Oct 18 '10 at 17:37
I am planning to write a utility if the utility is not available. I am thinking of achieving this programmatically – kalls Oct 18 '10 at 17:40
Then http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2246017/c-google-translate should probably help. – Pieter van Ginkel Oct 18 '10 at 17:45

Google Translate will do the job. It has a limit on the number of requests it'll accept within a given period of time.

I've used it to translate a web site from Japanese Kanji to English. It did pretty well.
