[RESOLVED] [2005] How to change the Current Language

Hi,

I am using Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition

I have in the computer 6 languages that I can choose with the help of alt + shift

How can I change the language with "InputLanguage" ?

Example:
The curser is at Textbox1 then the language must be xxx
The curser is at Textbox2 then the language must be yyy
The curser is at Textbox3 then the language must be zzz

Thanks in advance

There is an array that holds representations of all the installed languages. You can use it together with the gotfocus event:

VB Code:

Private Sub TextBox1_GotFocus
 
        InputLanguage.CurrentInputLanguage = InputLanguage.InstalledInputLanguages(0)
    End Sub
 
    Private Sub TextBox2_GotFocus
 
        InputLanguage.CurrentInputLanguage = InputLanguage.InstalledInputLanguages(1)
    End Sub

To check what number each language is, something like that should work:

VB Code:

Dim InstalledLanguages As String
        Dim lngNumber As Integer = 0
 
      Dim Language As InputLanguage
 
        For Each Language In InputLanguage.InstalledInputLanguages
           InstalledLanguages &= lngNumber & ". " & Language.Culture.EnglishName & Environment.NewLine
              lngNumber = lngNumber + 1
       Next Language
 
      MessageBox.Show(InstalledLanguages)

Hi,

Thank you, your answer is excellent.
