Working with an application written in a foreign (spoken) language

I have a VB5 application written in a foreign language (Italian). It uses an Access DB which is also in Italian.

How can I convert this to English?

I am possibly going to port this to .NET, but before I do I need to somehow read and understand what I am doing.

I wouldn't spend time or money trying to actually translate the source. Just use on-line automatic translators like google translate to look up snippets of Italian you don't understand. Comments and identifiers in source code are not complex literary works. It shouldn't take you long to grok the "programming Italian" subset of Italian.
