[LaphLaw]

I don't know how I did it, but the small calculator program that comes
w/ XP is missing. Where can I re-download it?

Thanks

Have you searched your drive for calc.exe ?

Unless it has truly vanished ...
try (control panel)
'Add/Remove Programs' ..then
'Add/Remove Windows Components' .. then
make sure everything in
'Accessories & Utilites' is checked off
(in details) ... then Next to finish

Hi,

Reinstall calc.exe under the Control Panel/Add & Remove/Windows
Components/Accessories and Games/Accessories, click "details".

Use Windows Explorer (Start | Run | explorer.exe) to search for the file
named calc.exe in the system32 folder. If it is there then right click it
and send it to the desktop (you can then rename that desktop icon). You can
then drag that desktop icon to your taskbar and/or into the Start programs
area.

If it is not there, I'd search *.cab files for calc.exe and then extract it
from the cab file.

But the easiest way is to go into Control Panel, Add/Remove Windows
Components, Accessories, select Details and then select Accessories (again!)
and Details, and then uncheck then check the box for calculator. Good luck!
