Okay, found it.  I was looking in the viewer, and you were talking about
the message editor.  My fault.

Probably . . . but to be honest with you, until opening TB! for the first
time, I've never come across the term XLAT table.  So I don't know where
the heck I would look to find one.

I have no problems using the registry editor, but are you saying an XLAT
table is a registry key?  If so, wouldn't I be able to find it in a form
that simply required double clicking to merge into the registry?

Ah yes.  That's what I mean above.  Where did you get them?

Since I run: a) Windows 98 SE b) NT 4 Server c) Win2k Pro and d) Linux, all
on the same box here . . . it would be drive, hmm, let me see <g> oh yeah,
drive L, I guess, for the W2K Pro sys files.  ^_-  But I have Japanese fonts
already.  Just need this mysterious XLAT table that I've never heard of.

Now *that* is where I want to be . . .
