Hi ?B?bWltaQ==?=,
Dose Word 2002 has the Japanese dictionary? If so, how to look up Japanese word in Japanese dictionary? Japanese is not supplied with English versions of Word 2002, no. You'd need to purchase the Proofing Tools kit for Office XP. And you'd also probably need to install some IME stuff so that Japanese can be displayed on your machine. If you want to pursue this, I recommend the word.international.features newsgroup.

I also must point out there is not a Japanese dictionary even in the Japanese
version of Word, kind of impossible to maintain a dictionary of Japanese, with over 8,000 (maybe more) characters in one version (Kanji) alone.

There are more words than that in the English lexicon, I think.

I fully understand that (my brother has lived in Japan for 25 years).
Japanese dictionaries do exist, however. -- Suzanne S.
