Hi, I have just installed a version of windows xp on my
PC and I can't find excel on it. Is it on it or not.
Can someone tell me how to find it if it is?

I think it is version xp-HE 2.2 If that means anything
to anyone.

Excel is part of Microsoft Office - NOT windows.

If you think that Windows XP includes Excel, sorry to tell you
that you're mistaken. Neither it, nor any other version of
Windows, has ever included Excel, Word, PowerPoint, Access, or
any significant other application software. Such programs have to
be bought, either by themselves or as part of Microsoft Office.

If your previous computer, running an older version of Windows,
came with Excel, it was because the vendor who sold it bundled
Excel as part of the package he sold you, not because that
version of Windows came with Excel.

However, if all you want to do is view existing Excel
spreadsheets, rather than create them yourself, you don't need a
copy of Excel. You can download a free Excel viewer at

Greetings --

Neither the Microsoft Office application suite, nor any of its
individual component applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access,
Outlook, etc.), have _ever_ been "part" of *any* Windows operating
system. They are, and always have been, separate applications, that
must be purchased and installed separately.
