  • Microsoft Win32 Software Development Kit for - Microsoft Windows NT version 3.51 - Microsoft Windows 95 version 4.0

SYMPTOMS

Using MSIME95 and MSIME97 under Japanese Windows 95 and Japanese Windows NT 3.51 and 4.0, Kanji cannot be set to the IME composition string (either converted or non-converted form).

STATUS

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION

Although Hiragana, Katakana, and alpha-numeric characters can be set to the composition string by calling ImmSetCompositionString(), ImmSetCompositionString() does not work for Kanji.
