Dear In Kang,
Please note that converting MNI (whether SPM2 or SPM5 or SPM99) to Talairach is at best a dodgy business - are you sure you need to? It's perfectly acceptable to publish MNI coordinates.
If you really want to, there are several points to consider - Matthew Brett's seminal web page lists them all:
http://www.mrc-cbu.cam.ac.uk/Imaging/Common/mnispace.shtml
He also provides formulae on how to do it.
If you do convert to Talairach, please make this very clear in the paper and, in particular, quote the method / formula you used.
Good luck and best wishes,
Alexander

Subject: [SPM] Converting MNI coordinates to Talairach coordinates
Dear All.
I have coordinates for an image already normalized to SPM5-MNI space.
Would anyone give help for converting MNI coordinates to Talairach
coordinates on SPM5 or SPM2?
Any help would be most appreciated.
Cheers.
