I hav e searched every place on my notebook I can think of to find works or
excel or office. I have wordpad, but was under the impression that works was
included on vista home premium (that's what my publishing company told me).
If it's there I can't find it. Is this something we have to purchase
separately?
Neither the Microsoft Office application suite, nor any of its
individual component applications (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access,
Outlook, etc.), nor Microsoft Works, 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 or Works 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.
