Hi Randy,

Sorry, didn't realize VB6 wasn't covered in that article. You may try
calling the following windows API calls in your VB application. Get the
Current LCID, change it, then restore it to the original.

Declare Function SetThreadLocale Lib "kernel32" Alias "SetThreadLocale"
(ByVal Locale As Long) As Long
Declare Function GetThreadLocale Lib "KERNEL32" Alias "GetThreadLocale" ()
As Long

The following KB article also has some more information about using these
API (GetThreadLocale as least)
