I use Microsoft Korean IME and Google Japanese IME. My Microsoft keyboard has lots of extra keys that I can use to launch applications or do other things. Now, I often need to type in English, Japanese and Korean. Currently the only ways I know are, 1)Press Alt+Shift again and again (=> tedious) 2)Assign shortcuts of Ctrl+Shift+something, such as Ctrl+Shift+1 (=> hard to press, there is a bug that the shortcut for Japanese IME disappears on its own) If there is an API for switching the system's input method editor, there could be applications for that. The application could take a command like parameter to set to the desired IME. Then I could assign Korean, Japanese and English to one of the keys on my keyboard. Is there any such application? Please let me know. If there is NOT, I think I will have to create one myself. Thanks.

1. For question regarding API and programming I recommend MSDN foru. 2. There are new features in Windows 7. Give a try to speech recognition if it helps you. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/goglobal/ee426904 Regards Milos
