Description

Get the locale ID for the current thread. Two special values are returned depending on the current thread's locale:

  • &h400 - Same as the user's default locale (takes precedence over the system's default locale). (for example,. if the thread's locale is the same as the user's default locale, GetLocale returns &h400)
  • &h800 - Same as the system's default locale (for example,. if the thread's locale is the same as the system's default locale, but not that same as the user's default locale, GetLocale returns &h800)

Example

Sub Main
    SetLocale &H409 ' English, US
    Debug.Print Hex(GetLocale) '"409"
End Sub
