Word is installed on this computer but there is no shortcut for it.
If i go into my documents i can load a word document and thus open Word, but
how do i create a shortcut for the program?

Hi,

This is not really the right place for that question, as this newsgroup is
only for the database programm Access.

Nevertheless: There should be an entry/shortcut somewhere in the
'StartMenue' of Windows under Programs. Go there right click on it and drag
in your desktop, when releasing the mouse button it should ask you if you
want to 'Copy', 'Create a Shortcut', etc. Guess what : select 'Create
Shortcut'.

In case you don't find an entry in the 'StartMenue', right click on your
desktop, select 'New' -> 'Shortcut' and follow the instructions. The program
file for Word should be 'Winword.exe'. Probably you should search first your
C: drive for it so that you know the path.

HTH,
Bernd
