Hey t-4-2,

Click on Control Panel and select Regional and Language Options. Click
on the Keyboard and Languages tab and then click on the Change keyboards
button. I think the one you want is the Chinese (Simplified, PRC)-US
Keyboard under the General tab. You can then click on the Language Bar tab
and pick your setting for it. Let me know if this works.

C.B.

Hey t-4-2,

Everything you need is there. I installed it on my computer and checked
it out in Wordpad. It works great. You have to click on the Language bar and
switch it from English to Chinese. If it doesn't work after you do this hit
the Control/Shift buttons and then start typing. When you type the word you
want it will type in English and then give you a selection of Chinese words
to choose from, such as � 霞, my wife's name. You must choose the correct
Chinese word because, as you know, each Chinese word can have several
meanings depending on how you pronounce it, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8,
9. See how easy that is. Let's do your name. 体-付-土。
Let me know if you have any problems.

C.B.

t-4-2
I don't know if you understand CB or if you really have a problem. You
are not describing what is happening.
You can not type chinese characters into the computer. You type
pinion. Then you choose from the results.
For example:
you want to type fish in Chinese. You must type "yu" then select it
from the pop up list because "yu" can be fish or a persons given name
or family name or many other things.
If this is not helping you, please describe what you are doing and the
results if you want further help.

1-Yes, I understood what you want.
2-This is the only way to accomplish it with the windoz system
3-Chinese language, having 50,000 basic characters, will not fit on a
usuable keyboard for typing purposes.
4-Even in China, they use the same system we explained to you.
5-Some rare systems use hand recognition software with a touch screen
or tablet to accomplish the task you wish. BUT as I said, it is not
available with the included windows system. IF you wish to locate this
type software, google "Chinese language software hand writing
recognition" for a start. Changing your search terms may vary results
+ or -. ie. " vista" or "xp" etc.....
