Hi Negoslav and George - thanks for this.

Once I've installed the new language though, how does one go about finding out 
what keys do what on the new keyboard layout, would there perhaps be 
documentation in Windows Help? I'm thinking in the case of Russian as it uses a 
completely different alphabet, then it would be in a way learning to type all 
over again?

Hope I've made enough sense there *Smile*.

  Control panel, regional and language options, languages tab, details button. 
Using the add button you land on a list where you choose Russian language. Tab 
once and you are in a list where you can select keyboard layout for different 
languages. be sure Russian is chosen. and activate the ok button. Tab again to 
ok, do this once again and you're set to use the russian alphabet. You change 
between English and Russian with alt+shift.

    Thanks Negoslav. Now how about producing the Cyrillic alphabet on a 
keyboard, can you point me in the direction of any hints. So far a Google 
search has yielded little success.

      You need the Russian voice installed. No way for eloquence or other 
English synthesizers or voices to read the Cyrillic alphabet.

        HI Guys,

        I'm imminently going to be embarking upon a Russian course, some of 
which is going to be in written form learning the alphabet etc. I'm a JFW 10 
user, and I'm just wondering what exactly I need to do in order to get it to 
recognise the various characters...I presume I need to install Russian support 
using the standard tools provided by Vista? Currently when I encounter Russian 
letters, I get no feedback whatsoever, or in the case of a Webpage, I am 
informed that the characters are indeed Russian if the appropriate Markup has 
been used.

        If anyone has any experience of dealing with the Russian alphabet, or 
any other alphabet other than our vernacular Roman, any advice would be 
appreciated.

        Mark
