How do I download microsoft word to my computer

[Ms Wordy]

I have Office XP, but for some reason I dont have word. When I go to start,
programs, to make a selection microsoft word is not listed.

Search your HD for winword.exe. When you find it, create a shortcut and drag
it to the desktop or Start menu.

Surely you are kidding Suzanne. MVP?
It doesn't come as a part of XP.

Of course it comes with Office XP - read the question!

Ms Wordy shared this with us in microsoft.public.word.newusers:

Do you have

OFFICE XP

or

WINDOWS XP

???

OFFICE != WINDOWS


If you only have Windows XP, its normal you don't have Word. Go to the
nearest computer shop and buy it.
Short of cash? Ask Suzanne Barnhill where you can get a cheap and legal
copy of Office, she usually knows this.
No money at all? Download OpenOffice: http://openoffice.org. To the
*untrained* eye, version 2.0 looks and works virtually identical to MS
Office.

Truly sorry Suzanne. I did misread it.
I do however wonder if she has office or just XP. Its a error I see
discussed often.

I wouldn't be surprised if it's really Windows, but sometimes you just have
to answer the question as asked and then wait for feedback.
