1. Programmatically detecting os language

I automatically generate my syspreps for w2k installations and i need to
figure out how to determine which language of w2k to install, not just the
keyboard layout.  Does anyone know how to do this?  I have heard of a way to
use the ntdll.dll to return the language code, but i don't know any more
than that.
