Hi everyone
I’m running a Hebrew-enabled Windows 98SE operating system which switches the kbd to Hebrew characters when I press alt-shift. My problem is that when I use my computer I press alt-tab a lot to cycle thru programs, and when I do shift- alt-tab to go backward in the cycle, anything I type on the kbd comes out in Hebrew letters.
How can I tell Windows to not put me into Hebrew when I press “shift-alt-tab”? (I almost never need to type in Hebrew, so I don’t mind removing this feature, as long as when I need Hebrew I can just change things back to be the way they are now.)
By the way, I have the line BaseCodePage=850
in the Windows section of my win.ini file, which I thought would have solved this problem.
Thanks for your help.

P.S. When I go to to "control panel" > "keyboard" > "language", I have no "switch language" button which I've heard exists in other versions of Windows to enable one to set Control+Shift to switch between languages instead of Alt+Shift. What I do have there is an "add" button to add a new language, and a "remove" button to remove a languags, so I might be able to just remove the Hebrew and then later add it back when I need it. I'm just afraid to do this for fear I'll have no way of getting Hebrew characters back!
