If you aren't focusing on the 'how to' aspects of your question and just
want a simple welcome note I will be happy to do that for you. Just reply with your short English text (like four or five sentances) and I will send you back the Español. Just leave blanks for personal information you might want to give them like your name or phone. You can fill that in before you print it out.

You wouldn't do this in Word (or any mechanical contrivance). Translating
calls for human skills that so far haven't been approached by *any* machine. Get a *trusted* person to translate for you. I say 'trusted' because it's not been unknown for mischievous words to be inserted that the 'customer' is blissfully unaware of!

Thankyou so much but first I would like to find out if there is a way I can
do it myself. I'm still kind of in the learning stage? Google has a way but it doesn't print it letter form. It prints it in english on one side of the page and then spanish on the other. Looks kind office plain not neighbor friendly. "GY2" wrote: If you aren't focusing on the 'how to' aspects of your question and just want a simple welcome note I will be happy to do that for you.

Google translater has a way but it doesn't look very new neighbor friendly.
It prints the note in english on the left and spanish on the right. I really would like to learn to do it myself if possible?

Thankyou for the hint. Sometimes I think if I had a brain I would be
dangerous! Thanks again, Melissa "Tom Willett" wrote: Print out the google version and retype it?

You will not get off to a good start with your new neighbour by sending a
note in the gibberish produced by computer translation services. Either consult a bilingual speaker to translate it for you, or simply go round and say hello! -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Algona Cat Lady wrote: Thankyou so much but first I would like to find out if there is a way I can do it myself.

....Or Select the Google'd text and then do Edit-Copy from the menu.
Go into Word and do Edit-Paste. I'd re-iterate the warnings other have mentioned though that Google (and any other automatic translator) rarely does a good job. Get Google to translate the Spanish it gaves you back into English and you'll get some idea of the problems... Cheers, Chris. "Tom Willett" wrote in message ...
