To create foreign character documents in Windows NT/2000
For Windows NT/2000, go to Start / Settings / Control Panel. Open Regional Options. The General tab configures documents in multiple languages. Select the Input Locales tab, then the Add button. Choose the input locale you want, then it should select the proper keyboard layout/IME. Click OK. Repeat if you want more layouts. Highlight the language you want for default, then select Set as Default (if it doesn't already have the check mark). You can use the Change Key Sequence option to enable or disable hot key switching, and/or customize it for each language. You will by default be able to switch languages using left Alt+Shift, and it will enable the language indicator on the taskbar (that area near the clock). It will appear there as a square box with a couple of letters in it (EN for English, De for German, etc.). You can then simply select that box to switch input languages.

Language pair: English; All
