KR>>> Problems with The Bat's handling of Chinese, Japanese, and Korean
KR>>> (along with a couple of other problems mentioned in another

what about using office 2000 with the special addin disks?
Supposedly there is japanese so probably Chinese/Korean also exists.
I havent seen any of these in the Final condition but they were widely
floating around in the far east in the beta stage...
The only problem I found was that one needed the USA windows to run
them as running English ofice 2000 on other European languages could
cause corruption...and in my experience language mixing here in the
far East is a problem (and a large amount of our business in sorting
it out again...)
or what about the free MS 98 downloads (english) for foreign languages which also let
you change
the menus to for instance japanese.. Only problem besides that I
wouldnt know how to use it was that on removing I found my internet to
have gone back to English but standard explorer stayed in japanese...
SH>> I am not sure about this, but maybe you can try, here it goes:

KR>>> 2. Worse yet, if I compose and send a message using The Bat and
KR>>> Korean Partner, the message header identifies the charset as
