Hey all I was asked if I could find a program that will put a on-screen keyboard in Hebrew.
A free program would be great, But if they have to pay that would be fine too.

    If this is Windows XP you can use the Hebrew IME (Input Method Editor). You'll need to install it from the XP CD. You go to add/remove programs and then "Add Windows Components" or whatever it's called. If you install the hebrew language pack and the hebrew IME, it'll give you a little blue icon in the taskbar next to the clock, which you can click on to get a little popup on screen keyboard.

    Ok I went to add and remove programs than Add Windows Components and here's the list of what it has Accessories and utilities, Fax services,indexing service,IE,internet information services(IIS),Management and monitoring tools,message queuing,MSN explorer,networking services,other network file and print services,outlook express,update root certificates,windows media player, windows messenger. That's all it has, I didn't see any type of language components.
    Yes this has XP Pro, So back to being loss.
    But you know being loss isn't that bad you get to look around places and often trip across something you haven't seen. :)

    Ok that seem to do it But the on screen keyboard is still English and the keyboard I'm typing on is in Hebrew. If that's the way its' has to be I guess it will work for them. But I like to keep the keyboard English and the on screen keyboard Hebrew.
    Is there a way to do that?
    Thanks Kentigern for getting me this far

    DogDragon if they don't want to go to the expense of buying software they could just buy a English - Hebrew ps2 keyboard approx $35 or buy the stickers for the keys approx $7
    See this site http://www.jewishsoftware.com/default.asp?aid=325&page=category&id=85&gclid=CJP7rb3rkIoCFREXEAod03cIgQ
