Programatically changing the User Locale

How to programatically change the User Locale? In the NLS documentation it is mentioned that it is not possible, is there any way around for this? Thanks!

How about
setlocale()?

Thanks but this is not enough.:( setLocale() is specific to the current program, I need to modify User Local which we modify through the Control Panel --> Regional and Language Options --> Regional Settings. One way I found out is modifying the registry at the following location HKEY_CURRENT_USER --> Control Panel --> International --> Locale But I need an elegent solution.

It helps to specify all of your requirements up front.

Yes, but the MSDN documentation also refers it as User Locale. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms776246.aspx[^] See under the column Standards and formats and against the row Purpose.
