Word 2002 and translate tool (phrases?)
I have Word 2002 (as part of Microsoft Works) which came pre-installed on my computer.
In the tools menu, there is a language - translate option.
I am only able to translate words (eg english to french), but not phrases.
When I try to translate a phrase, I get "no suggestions".
In the word help file (search "translate"), it says that both words and phrases can be translated.
I have installed the english/french dictionaries from the word CD.
Has any body made Word translate phrases?

Okay, I figured how to do it.
First I installed the WorldLingo Smart Tags ( http://www.worldlingo.com/microsoft/smart_tag.html ), even though it says the requirements are Office XP - well it didn't work.
Hope it didn't mess anything up in my word program (looked to remove the WorldLingo smart tags, but nothing appears in add/remove programs).
Then I found the "Word 2002 Update: Translation Services by WorldLingo" at
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=97ad9b81-af52-4e26-9a9c-c9babb4a2afd&DisplayLang=en .
Installed the program, and now I can connect to WorldLingo from within my Word2002 program.
Thanks for directing me in the right path to find my solution.
