There seems to be confusion about where messages come from.

If you want localization of the IBO-specific messages, why not just use the
version of ib_constants.pas for your language?

As to localization of ISC error messages (these are the ones returned from
the database) you can intercept these in the structure that is returned to
the OnError event. All you have to do is declare some constant strings of
your own to replace the English-language message that is returned. If you
want to log them, then write them to a stringlist and use the SaveToFile
method at some suitable point, to write the stringlist out to your log file.
