Change system locale

[Mahesh Varma]

Hi all, Is there any API to change the system locale ? I need to write a C# application which takes LCID as input, and based on the LCID it should change the system locale. Thanks Mahesh

how about putting this into the main CultureInfo ci = new CultureInfo("De-de"); Application.CurrentCulture = ci; the constructor of the cultureinfo accepts both - a string for the region or the code as int

SharePoint provides options to create sites with different types of locales available out of the box. Suppose we have a SharePoint site built using the English locale and we want to change the existing site to some other locale then this can be achieved using the following piece of code. Changing the locale of the site helps display the date and number formats with their respective decimal and group separators. http://www.mindfiresolutions.com/Changing-SharePoint-site-locale-programmatically-834.php[^]
