I would check the Windows XP installation CD. Look for wordpad.*.

Have a look on your machine. The executable is in the Accessories
folder but the .chm file is usually where the OP expects it to be.

Just to clarify: wordpad.chm should be in c:\windows\help with all the other
help files, but isn't there or anywhere else on the computer. Maybe someone
could send me a copy of it or tell where I could download it

Thank you

Did you look on your WinXP CD, as I suggested?

What do you mean with "did not work"? Here is an extract from my
WinXP CD:
F:\>dir /s wordpad.*
Volume in drive F is XRMPFPP_EN
Volume Serial Number is CA65-734F

Directory of F:\I386

Thu 29/08/2002 14:00 25,620 WORDPAD.CH_
Thu 29/08/2002 14:00 74,426 WORDPAD.EX_
Thu 29/08/2002 14:00 4,500 WORDPAD.HL_
Thu 29/08/2002 14:00 2,134 WORDPAD.IN_
4 File(s) 106,680 bytes

Wordpad.ch_ is clearly visible. You simply need to expand it.
