Hello @all!
I am new here, so please give me some credit <img src="images/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Smile" smilieid="1" class="inlineimg" />
I am living in Brazil and installed my win 7 ultimate edition in English and downloaded and installed the Portuguese language pack, which actually worked without a problem.
The only thing, driving me mad, is that the decimal limiter in Brazil is a comma, not a dot and this, although I changed the whole localization, including keyboard, to Portuguese (Brazilian). I went to "Region and Language" -> "Additional settings...." and manually changed the "Decimal symbol" to a comma with no joy! I downloaded "Microsoft Keyboard Layouter 1.4" and tried to remap the point on the numeric keypad to ANYTHING else... with no success as well!
I am checking the function with notepad and browser because I think, that there will be some additional localization changes to do in Word or Excel but I am not able to change the dot to a comma.
I tried so many things, that at the moment the English keyboard settings do not react anymore when pressing the dot on the numeric pad. It just does nothing!
When I change over to the Brazilian keyboard, it displays a dot... not a comma as defined.
I would be very happy if somebody could point me to a working solution as changing localization does not have any effect and I lost my dot under English keyboard driver. Thanks for your help!

Beat me... I was unsure which of the two tools will do the job better and I picked the wrong one. Sharpkeys works perfect, changed the dot to a comma. Only "downside" is that I may not change back, switching keyboards... but I can live with that. Thanks for the help!
