You basically select some text and tell it what language it is - then run the appropriate spell checker. I have not used the chinese part of but other languages and it worked just fine. http://www.microsoft.com/PRODUCTS/info/product.aspx?view=22 <http://www.microsoft.com/PRODUCTS/info/product.aspx?view=22&pcid=071b9ced-e d82-47ef-b5fa-a42ecbdec9b7&type=ovr> &pcid=071b9ced-ed82-47ef-b5fa-a42ecbdec9b7&type=ovr There are some special items for Asian languages available.

Will the proofing tools enable someone to type Chinese in MS Word? That's what I need to do, (or instruct one of our users to do).

Have a tough question that hopefully someone will be able to give me an answer to. We currently have a user in NYC that needs to send out a proposal in Chinese. Is there a way to setup MS Word 97 so that you can edit and type documents in Chinese? Any help would be appreciated. I wanted to test a few things on my machine, but I am afraid of turning my computer's text or Word text into Chinese without being able to read it to change it back.. :-) Thanks, Eddie Martin ______________________________________________________________________ This email has been scanned by the MessageLabs Email Security System.
