Just use OpenOffice, it is free and works virtually the same as Word.\n\nhttp://www.openoffice.org

You can't download Microsoft Word.  Microsoft Word is a software program copywritten to Microsoft and its for sale and not download.  If you find it for download anywhere thats illegal.  You need to go to the store and purchase it.  When you purchase it a registration key will come with it that you will need to install the program properly.\n\nIf you choose that you don't want to pay for it, consider www.openoffice.org, which has a really good word processor very similiar and compatible to Word.

You could try this site. It is not free, they cost $2 each but they do allow a free trial for 7 days - unlimited downloads.\n\nHope that helps.

MS Word 2k is better, though it may take a little bit more space, plus you have to pay for it around 70 bucks? though that's for the new ones- xp and 2003 i think.\n\nGet Open Office, it's originally made for Linux by Sun Microsystems (the company that invented Java lol), but they  have several versions for Windows, its a whole suite so you get a wordediting, chart editing, presentation editing, etc. 5or 6 things total that completely substitute Windows Office, plus its all free, just download it from http://www.openoffice.org, download is like 90 mb, then extraction 92 mb or so, and installed it's 250 mbs total, though Win Office 2003 is about a gig, Open Office, is less space taking, has all same features, is a lot easier to use, is a lot faster, hardly ever crashes.\n\nIt takes about 20 mintues to install it ( for novice users), took me about 5 minutes, I have been using the windows version for several monthes now, it takes a little bit of time to get into it after using the Windows Office, but it's a lot better, also go to http://www.download.com and http://www.softpedia.com to look for specific word editing programs, there are many free, good small programs for editing them, there's just less support for third party editing.\n\nIn the end Open Office is the best.\n\nIf all the Office Suites were listed Win Office would be first only because you have to pay for it, Open Office would be second just because its freeware, but it deserves to be free.\n\nMore thatn 8 thousand man hours went into making Open Office, so it's  been made almost perfect.\n\n\nIf you need help with anything else email me:\nlevlozhkin@gmail and @yahoo, also I'm on yahoo messenger, aim messenger- REEFORMED and at msn messenger - REEFORMED\n\nFeel Free to talk to me, or ask for help and advice, in Linux  and Windows, not Mac though (only mac I have is 8.6 version which died almost a year ago, and since then I haven't even turned it on)\n\nLev \nHope this helped

You can't get it for free. You can get a similar product called Open Office for free at http://openoffice.org. It will open and edit Word and PPT files although their program names are different.  But they work pretty well and look and feel like the Microsoft stuff you are used to. But if you want the actual Microsoft name on things and want it to be legal, you have to pay for it.

I am running MS Office 2000 with Windows 98 SE. So you can run it on XP.\n\nRequest the Service Pack 2 in a hard copy from Microsoft. (its free) don't download it from the site. That way you can be sure you are getting the correct CD.

You can get buy a legal copy of MS-Office or get a free substitute to it, the OpenOffice. It has everything that MS-Office offers, but you may not be familiar with the interface. Here is the link:\nhttp://www.download.com/OpenOffice-org/3000-2064_4-10594232.html?tag=lst-0-1

well, not knowing what you need it for makes it hard for me to answer....\n\nbut if you're looking for a word-compatible program, there's writely dot com (which is a free online word processor) or openoffice dot org (which is a free downloadable word processor).\n\notherwise, if you need the legit version of word, you'll either have to buy it (most software chains like wal-mart or best buy carry it) or steal it (via searching for warez on the web).\n\ngood luck, whatever you decide !  :)

Microsoft Word is not availble as a free download. \n\nIf you have Microsoft WORKS, you can use the Works Word Processor.   When you go to SAVE your file, use SAVE AS, then select the File Type as one of the versions of Microsoft Word, so people that have Word can open it.   \n\nOr get Open Office from http://www.openoffice.org and use the Writer part of it to make Word compatible documents. \n\nGood luck and Happy Computing!

Your question is a bit confusing.\n\nIf you want to download Microsft Office then it's BAD NEWS because it's not free, you have to buy it.\n\nThe open Source alternative is Open-Office.org 2. It can save and open documents in Word 2000 format. It is open source meaning free. The requirements for the latest version are windows 98 OR BETTER, with 128 MB ram, 800x600 resolution.\n\nhttp://download.openoffice.org/2.0.2/index.html\nClick DOWNLOAD OPEN OFFICE.ORG\nThen SELECT YOUR LANGUAGE (english, chinese or whatever). Select WINDOWS, if you have java select (without JRE)\nelse JRE bundled\n\nCONTINUE TO DOWNLOAD. it will take long (90 - 115 MB). if you are using a  56k connection, use a downlaod manager. Broadband it should be done in minutes. \n\nUse OPEN OFFICE WRITER, save your document to whatever format you like but if your frioend/other company uses word save in *.DOC format or print to pdf, because word cant read open office format. it will work nice for typing a Curriculum vita(CV).\n\nIf you just want to get the microsft works icon into the task bar, just click it once, hold and drag to the taskbar or start menu. I don't know what the path is but i'll bet it's in program files, under microsoft works.
