It's a Word Processor. Word processor is a kind of text editor that can do formattings. Normally, a text editor is unable to do formatting, but a Word Processor makes it possible to define formatting, but in expense of reduced compatibility (a plain text is able to be read by virtually all computer, in any platform, in any configuration (except perhaps for the problems on the Unix Line Ending, which is the only incompatibility between Unix and Windows and Macs text editor, some text editor is aware of this and is able to correctly handle all types of line ending))

A free trial of a beta  for office 2007 can be downloaded here  http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/HA101687261033.aspx\n\nOr you can use Open office which let's you open word documents, edit documents and save them in  word document format (.doc).  It is always free and works very well.  You can download Open office here  http://www.openoffice.org/\n\nHope this helps

I recommend Scribus as a free alternative to MS  Publisher but if you only want more simple functions then open office. I use Scribus at school and think its very good. However, it was running on Linux OS and ive never tried the windows version. Wouldn't have thought there would be any difference though.

Go to OpenOffice.org and you can get OpenOffice.org which is a completely open scource office suite, much like Microsoft Office, but free. And yes, it inclues a word processor called Write. It is definately better than Word and it's nearly free!

An application is generally specific to a particular system. Eg., say something like microsoft (MS) word is an application for MS windows.\n\nA program is in general not so specific, and can be a programmatic solution to any problem. Eg., program for calculating sum, printing tables, etc.\n\nHope this helped.

It depends on what applications you are working with.  Microsoft Office products primairly use Visual Basic as do many other applications.  You can find beginning books and guides on the internet and at Barnes and Nobel.

Are you serious?  Asking a question like that is like asking if your apple contains corn flakes too.  Windows XP is an operating system.  MS Office is a suite of programs that includes Excel, Word, Access, Outlook and Power Point.
