Hi Bob.
Sorry, I'm not tech savvy and obviously have chosen the wrong words to
describe my issue. I searched the discussion boards and found that someone
else had the same problem but no solution. Here, I've attached their
discussion. Hopefully, it can shed more light. (the web link is very useful)
Thanks!

Subject: Chinese Translation - Traditional To Simplified 3/31/2008 11:01

In: microsoft.public.word.docmanagement



Using Office Professional Plus 2007 - Word 2007, am unable to see Chinese
Translation options under the Review ribbon group even though I have Chinese
Language installed and MultiLanguage Pack installed.

The translation works in Word 2003 and is located under Tools - Language
(see http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/word/HP052727391033.aspx)

I found the icon in Word 2007called Translate with Options under the Office
Button -Word Options - Customize - Review - Translate with Options, and
installed on Quick Access Toolbar.

However, it doesn't work. Highlighted Chinese and tried to translate and
got this message:
Word is unable to proceed. More than one file necessary to do TC/SC is
missing.

Anyone else have this trouble and can offer fixes to this ?

Hi J.B.,

The Word online service can do some translation between say Simplified Chinese and Traditional Chinese (as examples). The listings
I'm showing are Chinese (PRC) to Chinese (Taiwan) and vice-versa in the 'Translation Options' choices.

From your original description, and now actually, I'm not clear from the limited description, what the tool you're looking for
would be, or why you would expect it, if it is separate, to appear in the Word 2007 ribbon. :( If it's an Add-in that had menu
choices then it would, in Word 2007 usually appear in the Add-ins tab if it's still installed and this is an upgrade from Word 2003
to 2007 (assuming it's still compatible).

You might want, in that case take a look in the attached template list
(Alt, T, I) and in the list of Add-ins listed in Word 2007's options,
(Alt, T, O)

Thanks Bob.
However, still not quite what I'm looking for. The tool I am referring to
is a purchased, licensed tool and not a standard option in Word. The
translation tool you are referring to translates between languages. The tool
I am looking for translates between dialects. Hmm.... >>
