    Alt+shift

    Hello,
    As you know with some Windows Systems that support more than one language you can change between languages by pressing ALT+SHIFT.

    How can I do this by VB?

    Thanks

    You need the API call SetThreadLocale -
    VB Code:
    1. Public Declare Function SetThreadLocale Lib "kernel32" (ByVal Locale As Long) As Long

    i.e. to set it to US English:

    VB Code:
    1. Call SetThreadLocale(1003)

    The attached code demonstartes this and all the other keyboard/locale related functions

    HTH,
    Duncan
