Description

Indicates the layout of the application when running under Middle Eastern versions of Windows.

Use BiDiMode to specify the bi-directional mode for the application. The bi-directional mode controls the direction in which text appears (left-to-right or right-to-left), the placement of vertical scroll bars, and the default alignment of text when the application runs in Middle Eastern locales.

The application's BiDiMode is used in the ShowMessage procedure and the MessageBox method. It also serves as the ParentBiDiMode for forms and for popup menus that are not activated by a control.
