KbdSetCp (Reserved, CodePageID, KbdHandle)

• Reserved (USHORT) - input: Reserved and must be set to zero.
• CodePageID (USHORT) - input: CodePageID represents a code-page ID in the application's data area. The code-page ID must be equivalent to one of the code-page IDs specified on the CONFIG.SYS CODEPAGE = statement or 0000. If the code-page ID does not match one of the IDs on the CODEPAGE = statement, an error results.

• KbdHandle (HKBD) - input : Default keyboard or the logical keyboard.

• 448 ERROR_KBD_INVALID_CODEPAGE
• 464 ERROR_KBD_DETACHED
• 504 ERROR_KBD_EXTENDED_SG

Keyboard code page support is not available without the DEVINFO=KBD statement in the CONFIG.SYS file. Refer to IBM Operating System/2 Standard Edition Version 1.2 Using Advanced Features for a complete description of CODEPAGE and DEVINFO.
