I have a VB6's Application that is in production environment right now, this application is reading the pc's Regional Settings; but now, I need to set another Regional Settings for the application without change the pc's settings.

How can I set the new Regional Settings globally with the lowest impact? Is there any configuration method (or something like that) for do it?
