Does Open Office Writer have any feature comparable to WordPad? I have
searched but find no reference yet to any quick and easy feature for brief

answered, I could probably totally abandon my use of the Microsoft product
in favor of Open Office.
>From what I remember of Windows WordPad, is a separate application, not

notes look at Tomboy.
This is exactly correct, WordPad is part of the Windows Operating System
and it will be on you computer if you are using any version of Windows
from Windows 95 on, unless you have intentionally deleted it. It is NOT
a part of the MS Office package. It is a simple text editor, not a word
processor, and it was first included to permit writing code for BASIC.
