I bought my kids a dell computer and they were always
using microsft word for their homework. Then some of
their friends messed our computer all up and we had to
format. Now they cannot find microsoft word. Can you help?
 
Keith;
Check the CDs that came with the computer.
It is not likely on the same CD as Windows XP since MS Word is not a
component of Windows.
 
You hopefully have the original WORD CD disk, which may actually be included
in a suite of office programs. Use it to re-install Word.

If not, perhaps you have a RESTORE disk, with WORD on it, that came from
Dell. If so, use it to re-install WORD. If not, you will have to talk to
Dell or the store you purchased your system from about the problem. Your
only other option is to buy WORD or an office suite such as Microsoft WORKS
or Microsoft OFFICE that includes WORD. The WORKS suite is the cheaper of
the two. Also I think you can buy WORD all by itself. That would be even
less expensive.

By the way, Word is not part of the XP operating system. Neither is OFFICE
or WORKS.
 
Most likely you had Word as part of the Works Suite. With my year old Dell,
the Works disks were in a separate orange box.
