I tried the suggestion to open the RUN box, typed in WORDPAD, and I get
the message "Can't find Wordpad or one of its components".  Also, the
FIND command cannot locate it.

I do not understand the comment about AFAIK.

This machine is running Windows-95 - is Wordpad supposed to a part of
W-95?

The only word processing program on this machine is Microsoft WORD.

Is there a site from which I might be able to download this file?
