Windows has never had a word processing program built in. You either have to buy Microsoft Office, or Microsoft Works. These used to be included with most new computers, but due to people wanting cheaper and cheaper computers they have moved to buying them separately.


Works is the cheaper, personal option, while Office is really intended more for business uses.

Microsoft wants you to buy Microsoft Office, there is a trial version in windows 7.
try Open Office it's free
http://download.openoffice.org/ pick the green one then follow the prompts to download and install

Word pad
note pad

or
google open office

try looking under programs, accessories, word pad

This may sound crazy, but is there a word processer (Word or Works) in the Windows 7 program?. I have tried everywhere I can and can't seem to find one.
