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.

You have updated your addressbook so that you post to [email protected] ?

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.

Well, there is a website

Beware, computer based translation is an inexact science. "See the cloud behind the bridge" may well become "See the spider behind the chopsticks". Such mistranslations might be particularly bad when organising travel details.

Have fun,
