Hard Question ! - Change language in specific textBox

Hi,

I've a form with few TextBoxes and in all i'm writing in language A except
one which i want to write in language B (both A and B are installed on my
PC). how can I make the specific textBox to write in language B when it has
the focus and get back to language A when it loses it.

I tried to send Alt+Shift and it's working when i move from one TextBox to
the other, but then when i leave the form (OnClosing i.e.) i'm stuck with
language B no matter what i'm doing.

Need HELP !!!!

thanks,
Gidi.

On the text boxes, handle the focus received event and in this , add the code
to change the input IME.

I hope I got the question correct.

I'm looking for a way to move from one language to the other...

That will be possible through event handling. That's what my initial answer
was. I will look for a sample code and post it later.
