Well, Nicole, a resume is a type of document, so you would use software
which is designed to create documents, such as Microsoft Word (a part of
Microsoft Office) or Corel WordPerfect (a part of Corel Office Suite).
Sometimes, depending on where you bought your computer, Microsoft Office or
Corel Office Suite are pre-installed and "come with" the computer, but not
always. In that case, you would need to purchase and install the software
yourself.

You could use Wordpad, which is very limited. The proper way is to purchase
a good word processor or a program specifically designed for resumes.

Simple - you go and purchase an Office suite. No version of Windows has ever
come with any Office suite included.

I feel compelled to mention free software now. "Free" doesn't
neccessarily equal "cheap". This isn't some shifty ad-banner-infested
junk, after all.

Open Office: http://www.openoffice.org

AbiWord: http://www.abisource.com

At least give them a try before spending lots of money on features
you might not even need!

I will shut up now.
