Keyboard Layout? 1

Can anyone tell me where Outlook XP takes its keyboard layout from? I have an XP client connecting to an Exchange server. Outlook XP seems to have the @ and " keys the wrong way round. All other Office apps are ok, as are earlier versions of Office. The server was installed as 'Dutch' version, so I'm wondering if it takes the setting from there? But how can I change it for the client?

The Dutch server has no say in how your PC will work, at least not for the keyboard.
I must admit it is weird though.
Check if there is more than 1 keyboard layout installed and remove the ones you do not use, restart and try again.
(control panel - Regional and language options)
of in Dutch: (configuratiescherm - landinstellingen)

If 'something' 'somewhere' gives 'some' error, expect random guesses or no replies at all. Please specify details.

I removed the US from the regional settings, although it wasn't selected it seemed to take the settings for outlook.

All ok now, thanks!
