Locale IDs Assigned by Microsoft
The following table lists the locales/languages with an assigned Locale ID (LCID). The purpose of the document is to help developers who are defining NLS services (sorting, time/date formatting, and keyboards/IMEs) for locales that do not yet have native support in Windows to avoid conflict.
Note:The appearance of a language/locale on this list does not indicate that Microsoft will offer support for it in the future.
For a list of LCIDs and keyboard combinations for locales that are already supported in Windows XP/Windows Server 2003, see Locale ID and Language Collections for Windows XP and Windows Server 2003.
