Default where are my side rulers in Works Suite 2000?

Have a look at "Works Suite 2000: How to Install Individual Programs
Included in Works Suite 2000" at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=245829. This may save you the
uninstall/reinstall. This assumes that Word is not present on the Task
Launcher.

You have been so helpful. Thanks very much. I'm going to uninstall, and
then reinstall in the hope that I can get Word. Thanks again.

You are using the Works Word Processor rather than Word. Whether you
actually have Word installed or not, I can't say.

I've clicked on tools, then options, but I can't see "View". It just

shows
the measurements in centimetres. The screen reads at the top

"Microsoft
Works Word Processor". I loaded all the discs, and the label on disc

one
reads "Microsoft Works Suite 2000 Set-up", then on the next line it

reads
"Microsoft Word 2000".

the

color?

I felt very comfortable using Works Suite 2000 on my previous

computer, so
loaded this onto my new computer. However, when I open a Word

document, I
cannot see side rulers. I used to be able to alter the top and

bottom
margins, by using these rulers. Also, my background screen to the
documents
was grey, and there was a clear difference between each page. Now

the
background is blue, and the pages appear to be continuous. And

what's
happened to Mr Paper Clip? I would be grateful for any help.
