Word Pad is a very simple editor for text and RTF files only. Earlier versions used to read and write Word 6 files as well.

Word is a powerful and complex word processor with many more commands and capabilities. It can also import and export a much greater variety of formats.

What is the difference between Word and Word Perfect?

Microsoft Word is more user-friendly if you are looking for a basic writing program.
