Apologies to Bart but the only way I can post to wamug is by replying to 
another's post.  I
keep getting an error message from the wamug site.

Can anyone assist please.

I have a friend in Japan who has little English and I have little Japanese.  Is 
there a program
which will convert my English e mails , or word docs to Japanese so he can read 
them and vice
versa, so that I can convert his Japanese e mails to English so I can read 
them.  If we need to
load the program both in Aust and Japan that can be arranged, as the wife & I 
am going to Japan
to visit mid April, but it would be great to converse more fluently before I 
go, to get the
travel arrangements right.

Windows based program would be needed as they are using windows in Japan.

Many thanks if you can offer me any advice.
Regards,
Ted Burbidge.
