Btw, I just use Microsoft Photo editor. It is a simple program that is very good at what it is supposed to do (I like small, simple programs that do what I want and don't try to do everything in the world... I very much don't like the ALL IN ONE programs)... you should have it already if you have MS Office. If you have MS office installed, but can't find Photo Editor, you should be able to locate MS Photo Editor by selecting Start/Search for Files or Folders and then search for photoed.exe. If you installed Office as a custom and only chose a couple of apps (Like I do... I don't need all of the stuff it has to offer) then it probably didn't load Photo Editor and you will have to install it from your office disk.
Unless you have office 2003... they didn't include it on that program...
But if you have office XP you can follow these steps to install it
Insert the Microsoft Office XP CD-ROM into your computer's CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive.
If the Office XP Setup program does not start automatically, follow these steps:
Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type drive:\Setup.exe, where drive is the letter of your CD-ROM or DVD-ROM drive.
Start to step through the setup process, and then select Customize for the type of setup to perform.
Under Features to install, expand Office Tools.
Click Microsoft Photo Editor, and then click Run from My Computer.
Click Install Now.
Click OK when Office XP Setup has completed successfully.
If you have an earlier edition of office... the above may help... but I'm not sure (I have office XP)
