------------------
You set it up as a Chinese Simplified Keyboard using the MS-PinYin98
keyboard properties.

When in Word (or any other app) set the keyboard to Chinese Simplified.  A
small floating menu appears on the lower left of the screen.  There is a
button on it 4th from the right that you can use to switch between
Simplified and Traditional character sets.  The default is Simp., push it to
change to Traditional.

At least that's what worked for me!

Good luck!
