Yes. The legends on the keycaps will obviously be wrong, but the keyboard will work just fine set to QWERTY.

ah, so we're talking windows.
Why don't you just try yourself ? Depending on the version you're running, ie for XP:
System settings/regional settings and speech/speech/textinput details.

bottom line: the keys that are physically available on your keyboard will alter their meaning when the text input scheme is changed ie from German to US english:
pushing the "Z" will hand out the "Y", pushing the "*+~" will hand out the "]", but on a ISO keyboard no "| or \" will be possible because the key is physically located above the ANSI enter, therefore not available on ISO boards.
edit: QERTZ vs ANSI:

.


and as for the AZERTY KB we're talking...:

Oh... So you have an AZERTY keyboard and would prefer it with QWERTY keycaps?
Why not try a trade?
You would have to tell what keyboard it is, of course
And please consider this.

I know, I had already found out, but I thought it would be a good idea - who knows if I will remember by the time MuF offers a trade?
