Microsoft Visual Keyboard is a tool that allows you to write in multiple languages on the same computer. The other language keyboard is displayed on the screen. The Visual Keyboard program can be used when switching between keyboard layouts for different languages.

When the keyboard layout is changed, the characters appearing on the screen may not respond to those on the keyboard. The Visual Keyboard program allows you to see on screen the keyboard of the language you have switched to. This allows you to either click the keys on the screen or find the right keys on your keyboard and enter text.

For example, when working with the Polish version of Microsoft Word, you may need to type Greek text. When you switch the keyboard layout from Polish to Greek, you can use Visual Keyboard to display the Greek keyboard layout on the screen. To place the S symbol in your document, click the S button on the onscreen keyboard or use the Visual Keyboard program as a physical keyboard representation of the on-screen keyboard and press the corresponding key.

The visual keyboard works with the following Office 2000 programs: MS Word 2000 MS Excel 2000 MS Outlook 2000 MS PowerPoint 2000 MS Access 2000 MS Access 2000
