Could someone please tell me if the latest version of Windows XP Home Edition
actually includes "Word" or does it just have Wordpad and Notepad.

Many thanks

No it doesn't - see my response to your other post which you only posted 13
minutes ago - please be more patient, this is NOT a chat room.

No versions of Windows include Word; it's a separate product (or part
of Office also a separate product).

I think the confusion arises because some manufacturers sell
computers with Word or Office pre-installed in addition to Windows.

Unfortunately NO. Word is different product in MS Office .MS Windows is
different.
You can buy Word , Excel and which you need separately or in a single Office
Pack.In my opinion MS Office is extremely extremely expensive products but at
the same time really good.You can use 60 day free trial version of MS Office
2003 Standart edition via download from here or goto a computer shop and buy
a version that you need.

Also there are other Office Pack which is extremely cheap (free) but lacks
of good struckture and some functions.It is called Open Office.org
and can be downloaded from here:

OO is about the same as MS Office 2002 without Outlook - it will do
EVERYTHING (and more as it exports to pdf natively) that the
average-to-advanced user needs.......

WHAT ???
It lacks of good struckture and some functions .MS Office is the best.

OO's powerpoint is stupid and difficult for everyone.OO's word doesn't have
functions that MS Office has.(e.g.MS Office has Word Art,useful layouts for
pictures and many many other things which OO doesn't have)

OO is only for newbies but will definitely not fit advanced user needs.

I'm not going to argue with you - you obviously haven't used OO for a very
long time if at all.

plonk.

An important rule of newsgroup etiquette: Wait at least 24 hours
without getting any responses before reposting the same question. This
isn't a chat room. Repeating a question after "waiting" only 13 minutes
is rude.

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.

Microsoft Office comes pre-installed on new computers only when the
computer manufacturer chooses to offer it, and the purchaser is willing
to pay extra for it. If you need Excel, you'll have to purchase and
install it.
