Hi, Goldie. Microsoft Word and/or Microsoft Office are separate programs
from Windows XP, and they do not automatically come with Windows XP. Did you pay extra for Word or Office? Is Word or Office actually installed on your computer? One way to check is to click on Start | Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs, and see if there is an entry in the list of installed programs for Microsoft Office XP, Microsoft Office 2003, Microsoft Word 2002, or Microsoft Word 2003.

I just purchase a new computer for use at home. It came with a trial
version of Office (Word, Excel, etc.) and when the time is up, I'll need to purchase it. I didn't see any systems that came with Office in the bundle. "garfield-n-odie" wrote in message ...

Hi, goldie. Whether that template is worth $45, I don't know. If you
just want to view and/or print the template, you might be able to do that with Wordpad, which does come with Windows XP. Or you can download the free "Word Viewer 97-2000 for Windows 95 and Windows NT" from http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=165908 and use that to view and/or print the template. Or you can download a trial version of Office 2003 from http://www.microsoft.com/office/trial/default.mspx, which will work for about 60 days before it stops allowing you to create or edit documents (you'll want a fast internet connection for this because the download is really huge). goldie wrote: Thanx garfield i checked control panel and i dont have any that say word 97 or later.

Hi, Barb. If you custom order a home PC from Hewlett Packard, they
offer a full (not trial) OEM version of Office 2003 Basic preinstalled for +$150 or a full OEM version of Office 2003 Small Business for +$300. If you custom order a home PC from Gateway, they offer several different full (not trial) OEM/retail/upgrade versions of Office 2003 preinstalled for +$160 to +$460. I would expect other PC manufacturers have similar programs. Barb Reinhardt wrote: I just purchase a new computer for use at home.
