MS Paint text function grayed out

[RayGo1975]

OS : MS Vista Home Premium

I am trying to use MS paint and the 'A' tool on the tool bar is grayed out
and not clickable. Do I have to pay to use this tool?
Also if I go to view the 'Text Toolbar' option is checked but again it is
grayed out.

I am no expert on windows but I thought paint was included with the OS.

Any help is appreciated.

PS Don't bother telling me that some other program is better, I just need to
plan my flower garden and MS paint is fine for that.

Never mind, I started drawing in lines and now I can add text. Don't know
what I did to get it turned on but it is fine now.
