I have tried to post the above for many times until nearly giving up because each time I used brackets for the Chinese words, the posting was rejected and erased by the system. Did anyone encounter the same problem? (The software I am using is Chinese Star 2004 which gives only simplified characters.)

casey,just change to window XP pro with the input from the CDROM.It is fast each time we want to use it and the pc won't hang like we use other input software.Sadly no pinyin input for big 5,we must use other method.
I find one dict add a word in front of phi2 wrote by you.
kian1 phi2 坚庀 ==mandarin 结痂 -The wounds will eventually scab.
