Check your "start menu", too. (click on start)
Also, it may be found by clicking on 'start', then 'all programs', and searching for MS Office (or some other similar name). The MS Office Shortcut tool should be there.
You can also drag & drop any application from the start menu to your desktop. Hover the mouse pointer over the program, press and hold the left mouse button, then drag it over to the desktop and release the left mouse button ... VOILA!!

Then click on Programs,
scroll down until you find Microsoft Office or Microsoft Word. You can also use the Run command to run the executable file for the application you need. In Microsoft Word's case, it is Winword.exe that will run the program. You just need to find it in the Office folders.
