I installed the Microsoft Office Suite 2003 on a Vista machine. Everything
works fine, however, I noticed that I can't find Microsoft word anywhere. However, I can move a document into the machine and open it up. Microsoft Word opens fine, and I can start a blank document from there. I check task manager and there is a winword.exe process running, but I can't find a shortcut nor a folder for Word within the Microsoft Office folder. I do a search in my computer for winword.exe and nothing shows up. It seems like it's not there but it is because I can run it when I move a document file from a usb and open it that way. Any ideas? |

Any ideas? This is only a guess on my part, but have you tried looking at hidden files? (Go to folder options in Control Panel, and click "show hidden files and folders".) I mention this because I could not find any of my Eudora mailbox folders until I did this. Be sure to go back afterward and select "do not show...." It does seem surprising that an entire program would be under hidden files, but I could not even find the Eudora mailboxes by using Search until I "unhid" them. MaryL |

Right click the winword.exe process and select "Open file location"
My Word 2000 version is located at "C:\Program Files\microsoft office\Office" "syxxzonz" <syxxzonz@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:01A4FDE1-F075-4CF9-991B-F0C89B562181@microsoft.com... > I installed the Microsoft Office Suite 2003 on a Vista machine. > Everything > works fine, however, I noticed that I can't find Microsoft word anywhere. > However, I can move a document into the machine and open it up.
