GetUserDefaultUILanguage issues   

All,
  I have a non-MFC C++ application and I am trying to load a resource dll 
based on the default languages.  I am running on Windoxs XP-Pro (SP2) and I 
used control panel to change my language (for unicode and non-unicode) to 
potuguese.

After a reboot, the call to GetUserDefaultUILanguage is still picking up 
English.

Here is my code, and all four show ENU as the Locale,

Any ideas as to what is wrong here?

Thanks,
  Mark

	langid = GetUserDefaultUILanguage();
	nPrimaryLang = PRIMARYLANGID(langid);

	lcidAfterConvert = ConvertDefaultLocale(lcid);
	nResult = ::GetLocaleInfo(lcidAfterConvert, LOCALE_SABBREVLANGNAME, 
szLangCode, 4);
	if (nResult == 0)

	lcidAfterConvert = ConvertDefaultLocale(lcid);
	nResult = ::GetLocaleInfo(lcidAfterConvert, LOCALE_SABBREVLANGNAME,

		return NULL;
