I answered three questions as below. But I think these things are not
fit on the scope of this list. You'd better to choose other
forum/list/newsgroups to ask these questions.
 
Also, I guess you're Developer and in Japan. You'd better ask someone
in your company to ask these questions. I think there are very few
people who can answer these questions.
 
I included bit extra information for other developers, so anyway,

Roger>    1) What files other than those from IchiTaro can be imported
Roger> to the Mac from NEC PCs?
 
Up to the application you're using.
 
But I don't know applications which can import other than Ichi-Taro.
(may exist, but I don't know.
 
Ichitaro is best selling Word Processor for NEC PC9801 (best selling
Personal Computer in Japan) but recently it is availble for othe
platforms.
 
Roger>    2) What are the top selling programs for business and
Roger> general use on the PC 9800 series?
 
If you say, general use, it must be Lotus 1-2-3 or Excel, or some
database program like dBase.
 
Roger>    3) Do products exist which allow data to transferred between
Roger> the Atari Portfolio, Sharp Wizard or Casio's PDAs and the Mac?
Roger> If so, what are their names?
 
I know there are transfer program/cable apckage for Sharp Wizard in
states, but protocol and cable is differnt from Japanese version of
Sharp organizer.
 
Recently ParcWay released a package which includes HyperCard stack and
cable to transfer between Sharp organizer (like PA-8500, PA-X1, etc.)
and Macinosh.
 
Roger>    4) Does anyone know the name of the product introduced last
Roger> year by Xerox which allows you to command your computer to send
Roger> files to a destination from any fax machine?
 
I don't know this.
