Please, no shouting, especially in the morning. I like my mornings to be quiet…. :)

Let me get it straight – you want to programmatically CHANGE computer’s regional settings in VB.NET? If so - Why? I think it is really bad idea to mess with computer’s settings – that’s what users wants to have and we should not change that. Period.

Unless you have something else on your mind. If so, please explain what you want to do.


Have fun.
