I have vista so it would need to be compatible with that.

For fast no-nonsense writing with a minimal risk of corrupting documents,
WordPad -- which comes with Vista -- does the job quite nicely. Start - All
Programs - Accessories - WordPad.

Your request is a bit crass in my opinion.

IMO, it is not Word, although depending on several things, Word can be
capable and functional for such purposes. The answer really depends on what
YOU mean by a novel and what you're going to do with it.

Word is your best bet saved as version 2003/97. I have written a couple of
novels in Word Perfect, but most agents and publishers want soft copies in
Word format. I had to convert the large file (133,000 words) to Word and then
go through and manually change the chapter headings and most punctuation
marks which printed out as letters or other characters. If I had known that
Word would be the lingua franca I would have strated there.
Save as 2003 or earlier since not all users have 2007.
