[Billy Ng]

Morning all, my XP Pro. the language bar (»y¨¥¦C), i.e. a small keyboard
icon on the taskbar, no show from the taskbar. I have try to right-click
from the taskbar and select the language bar, but no language bar selected.
How to resume the language bar icon? Thanks!!

Try this:
Contro lPanel > Regional and Language Options box > Languages tab, under
Text Services and Input Languages, click the Details... button > On the Text
Services and Input Language box, Settings tab, under Preferences, click the
Language Bar...button . On the Language Bar Settings box, click to check the
boxes Show the language bar on the Desktop, Show additional Language bar
icons in the taskbar and Show text labels on the Language bar. Uncheck Show
the Language bar as transparent when inactive. If the other check boxes are
disabled, uncheck the first box and check it again, this will enable the
other boxes.

Which button: Details button or Language bar button? Buttons are clicked not
selected. On the last part of my previous post, where you are to select the
check boxes:

"If the other check boxes are disabled," it could also read as "If the other
check boxes are grayed". If that what you mean please continue with the
instructions.

Try this too it could solve the problem:

On the Text Services and Input Languages box, move to Advanced tab instead
of the Settings tab. If the check box under System Configuration is checked,
uncheck it, then click Apply button, then check the Language bar button in
the Settings tab.

If that does activate the Language bar button, under installed services you
must have at least two services installed. Click the Add button... . In the
Add Input Language under Input language choose another from the drop down
menu. Click OK, you'll return to the previous box, click Apply button. If you
have script blocking software like Spybot Search and Destroy a box will pop
up, please allow the change to take place.

You can also choose to add the Speech Recognition instead of the keyboard
layout.

For Settings of the Language Bar, please refer to my first post.
