wordpad

I have a piece of software that looks for wordpad to display some inquiries,
and it is not installed on the computer. Is there an easy (fast?) way to get
this on: I looked in add/remove programs under the Windows components and
could not see it there.
Windows XP Pro
Thanks

What happens when...
Start | Run | Type: wordpad | Click OK

If Wordpad is installed, it lives here...
%ProgramFiles%\Windows NT\Accessories
or
C:\Program Files\Windows NT\Accessories\wordpad.exe

Windows Components:
 Accessories and Utilities
 Accessories

In the end I found I needed to expand it off the XP CD, and now it is running
OK. Thanks for the help
