Wow! I learn something new every day! I've never heard of this before! I went to the Microsoft site to read up on it - it's for Japanese, Korean and Chinese characters. However, it will *not* work with Legacy because Legacy doesn't support non-Western European fonts at this time plus it's only for Office related programs.
The MS site says "you can input Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text into any Microsoft Office XP applications, Web forms, and e-mail messages on any language version of Windows XP, Windows 2000, Windows Millennium, Windows 98, and Windows NTR 4.0 with Service Pack 6 (SP6) or later." It has a pretty specific usage. Thanks for using Legacy. Sherry Customer Support Millennia Corporation [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.LegacyFamilyTree.com We are changing the world of genealogy!

Like the new IE7 address bar context menu for example. Chances are when you click it you wont have anything happen. Well if this has left you confused then read up on it at the official page: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/ie6/downloads/recommended/ime/default.ms px (corrected URL inserted by Sherry) In a nutshell IME is the short form of Input Method Editors. Its for inputting complex east asian characters using a normal keyboard. Evert 2008/2/12, Anne Brooks <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I have been using Legacy for a long time.
