Clipbord Problems - Locale not supported by X

I tried setting the LANG environment variable, but I still get the same results.  I set it in the startxwin.bat file that I use to start XWin.  Is this the correct way to do it?

The command I used was:
set LANG=C XWin&
which strips off the & so that the result is:
LANG=C XWin

I also tried:
set LANG="C XWin&"
which kept the & but also kept the quotes.

Neither one worked so that the clipboard was active.

I also found that my caps lock key isn't working in any of the XWin windows.

Thanks.
