Actually my customer asked me whether this can be done.
On an employee-registration screen, he has to enter the
name and address of an employee in both English and
Arabic. This guy types without looking at the screen
(only at keyboard) and it was only after typing both
english and arabic that he realized that he forgot to
press ALT+SHIFT to switch language, resulting in garbage
english characters in the arabic text box!
he immediately told me to make this switch automatic, and
i said it will be done.
can anyone give me any pointers to this? thanks

I don't think so, this is purely client side issue, if
they want they canenter their input using Right Alt + the keycode of the
characters they wantto type in. Technically you could write an ActiveX
control that would dothis but I don't think your users would welcome you
changing their inputlocale.

news:00****************************@phx.gbl... Hi
I am doing a bilingual .NET application for
English/Arabic. On a web form, I have some edit boxes
for data entry in Arabic and some for entry in English.
Right now the user has to change his keyboard language by
pressing ALT+SHIFT (or by changing the language
manually elsewhere) each time he wants to shift from one
language to another.
Is there anyway I can automatically change the language
when the user moves from an English Edit box to an
Arabic Entry edit box?
Thanks...
