IME, Language Bar - IME Pad wont come up

[Chris]

With XP, I am using the language bar / MS-IME2002
to enter kana/kanji.

I am using notepad and Word (not office XP version) to
actually enter text. My problem is this... clicking
the "IME Pad" icon on the language bar does not bring up
the IME Pad. That means i cant enter Kanji by stroke,
character code, handwriting, etc.

I believe there is a bug fix for Japanese XP having
the "virtual keyboard" not working (which I beleive you
get the virtual keyboard by clicking on my IME Pad icon i
am talkinga bout).

Is there a bug in English XP? A Fix? The button is
there, so I think it's supposed to work ; ) I cannot
find anything about it on the MS website. The only entry
for the ms-ime2002 i could find at all was the Japanese
XP bug. And yes im sure i have ms-im2002 because that's
what the language bar says. Again, everything is working
but the IME Pad.

Thanks for any help!
Chris

Sounds like you installed a downloaded version of the Japanese IME?
The XP CD contains the proper Asian IMEs and should be used instead.

In any event, go to this web site:
