Like the first character center aligned, the 2nd character underneath (on the next line) again center aligned and so on. (Japanese/Chinese names display option) Thanks for you patience.

Before I continue have a look at following explanation: http://www.msu.edu/~bellbri2/ime.html I can type into WORD but not into Excel, but the copy > paste function works also here, the same goes for Microsoft Publisher. Many years ago I had to set up the accounting system in two companies(Japanese invoices to the customers, English reports to the headoffice in Germany, operated by bilingual staff). Global IME was not around at that time. Then I used Twinbridge(Japanese and Chinese), which was available for Windows 95 and which I still have on my older Laptop. When Windows ME came the Global IME system was very handy, but it works only as said in above webpage. May be Microsoft has a solution or at least a comment for this. Or can Genopro activate the Global IME system from within genopro, like when you start WORD, the function is there (En on the system tray right side)? I still have to try Genopro with Twinbridge on my old PC and transfer the files to Windows ME and see the output there. Give me another few days for this. I have downloaded the trial version (60 days) for ME but not installed yet. Edited: Sunday, September 18, 2005 by GenoProSupport
