I've got my Thai input language added and my language bar on the toolbar with En/Th as needed. Started actually using it today and realized that one letter is missing on the Thai keyboard layout: "s" soo ryysii (sorry about the spelling!). Is that letter not normally used in Thai typing (I doubt it!!) or is there a problem with Vista (using the "Notepad" application)?

You can see what i mean by: Control Panel, Regional and Language Options, Keyboards and Languages, Change Keyboards, select Thai (if you've already added Thai), and look at Properties

Thanks!

I am using Vista and ษ is [shift][า or K] on the keyboard. ฤษี. ฤษี [N] hermit; recluse. And, I typed the letter on the notepad as well. I got to thinking. Perhaps the problem is that it is difficult to see the letters on the on-screen keyboard. Under "Settings" "Font", try something like "Tahoma, bold".

Thank you, the "shift + K" works on that.

Another problem is that the letters e, h, j, and shift + 6 keys produce nothing when typed in Thai mode. I mean no letter or mark appears on the screen at all when those keys are pressed.

I'm working on making some kind of hardcopy reference i can refer to for typing in Thai now. Wish i'd gotten one of those B175 thai keyboards at Panthip!

The "e" key in the Thai, non-shifted position is "อำ". Since this vowel cannot stand alone, clicking this key in Thai without an accompanying consonant produces no result. Try clicking "อ" then "unshifted-e" in the Thai mode. "h", "j", and the others are of a like matter "h" is "อ้"; "j" is "อ่". Also, you may wish to invoke the "Keyboard" "Enhanced Keyboard" if you have not already done so. Good luck.

BTW, I typed this in the notepad and pasted in here. Notepad works fine with the Thai keyboard.

Me too; I have been promissing myself that I would buy a Thai keyboard to plug into the USB port of my laptop too.
