WORDPAD (MICROSOFT WORDPAD)


 

WordPad

WordPad is a basic word processor that is included with almost all versions of Microsoft Windows from Windows 95 onwards. It is more advanced than Microsoft Notepad but simpler than Microsoft Word and the discontinued Microsoft Works. It replaced Microsoft Write.

वर्डपैड एक बुनियादी वर्ड प्रोसेसर है जो विंडोज 95 से माइक्रोसॉफ्ट विंडोज के लगभग सभी संस्करणों के साथ शामिल है। यह माइक्रोसॉफ्ट नोटपैड की तुलना में अधिक उन्नत है लेकिन माइक्रोसॉफ्ट वर्ड और बंद माइक्रोसॉफ्ट वर्क्स की तुलना में आसान है। इसने माइक्रोसॉफ्ट राइट को बदल दिया
