Answer 1

If you put the following code on start of your application, it would run automatically Test2, whenever you press Alt+F11.
Private Sub Workbook_Open()
Application.OnKey "%{F11}", "Test2"
End Sub
Public Sub Test2()
Debug.Print "tested"
End Sub
I am not sure whether this is exactly what you want, but it is a work around to achieve it.
Edit:
Actually, here you may find plenty of useful stuff:
http://www.mrexcel.com/forum/excel-questions/468063-determine-language-user.html
E.g. With the Sub ShowLanguages you may built a function telling you which language are you using and if it is not English, you may switch to it, the way you do it in your answer. I would probably built something similar later.
Private Const LOCALE_ILANGUAGE As Long = &H1
Private Const LOCALE_SCOUNTRY As Long = &H6
Private Declare Function GetKeyboardLayout Lib "user32" _
(ByVal dwLayout As Long) As Long
Private Declare Function GetLocaleInfo Lib "kernel32" _
Alias "GetLocaleInfoA" _
(ByVal Locale As Long, _
ByVal LCType As Long, _
ByVal lpLCData As String, _
ByVal cchData As Long) As Long
Public Sub ShowLangauges()
Dim hKeyboardID As Long
Dim LCID As Long
hKeyboardID = GetKeyboardLayout(0&)
If hKeyboardID > 0 Then
LCID = LoWord(hKeyboardID)
Debug.Print GetUserLocaleInfo(LCID, LOCALE_ILANGUAGE)
Debug.Print GetUserLocaleInfo(LCID, LOCALE_SCOUNTRY)
End If
End Sub
Private Function LoWord(wParam As Long) As Integer
If wParam And &H8000& Then
LoWord = &H8000& Or (wParam And &H7FFF&)
Else
LoWord = wParam And &HFFFF&
End If
End Function
Public Function GetUserLocaleInfo(ByVal dwLocaleID As Long, _
ByVal dwLCType As Long) As String
Dim sReturn As String
Dim nSize As Long
nSize = GetLocaleInfo(dwLocaleID, dwLCType, sReturn, Len(sReturn))
If nSize > 0 Then
sReturn = Space$(nSize)
nSize = GetLocaleInfo(dwLocaleID, dwLCType, sReturn, Len(sReturn))
If nSize > 0 Then
GetUserLocaleInfo = Left$(sReturn, nSize - 1)
End If
End If
End Function

Answer 2

I use Timer to check if VBA editor window is the active window every 0.5 Sec and if true I run my function that change the language to English and stop Timer:
Private Sub Form_Timer()
Dim st As String
On Error Resume Next
st = VBE.ActiveWindow.Caption
If Err = 0 Then
ChLng 1033
Me.TimerInterval = 0
End If
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
And I run Timer again when any control on my form change the language to non English language:
Private Sub cmbAR_GotFocus()
ChLng 1025
Me.TimerInterval = 500
End Sub
Private Sub cmbTR_GotFocus()
ChLng 1055
Me.TimerInterval = 500
End Sub
In Form design I manually add all needed events including Form Load event that run the Timer:
Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.TimerInterval = 500
End Sub
NOTE: ChLng xxxx is the function that change the language:
(Find your desired language at BCP 47 Code)
Private Declare Function ActivateKeyboardLayout Lib _
"user32.dll" (ByVal myLanguage As Long, Flag As Boolean) As Long
'define your desired keyboardlanguage
Sub ChLng(lng As Long)
ActivateKeyboardLayout lng, 0
End Sub
