Hello all . . .

Is there some way to get another copy of Notepad, or find the one that's gone missing, if it's still on my computer? When programs LOOK for it, they say they cannot find it. Also, when I try to "View Source" nothing happens, no doubt for the same reason.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!

Ededfinn......Have you tried opening your front door and calling loudly here notepad , here notepad.......that always works for me ....well almost always.
You didn't say what o/s your using .....but if you have Xp, try clicking start/All Programs/Accessories......then see if notepad is in the list.
Have you removed anything recently and possibly removed notepad as well ?
You MAY have to reinstall windows to get it back.

There is another copy in   C:\WINDOWS\System32 folder (look for notepad.exe)
Let us know if this helps.

You can go add and remove Windows components by going to the Add/Remove Software function in Start -> Settings -> Configuration -> Add/Remove SoftwareOr see if you've accidently deleted the shortcut, by typing "c:\Windows\notepad.exe" * in the "Run" box...

*dl65, this is where Notepad normally lives, at least in 9x and where I always thought it existed in XP. Can an XPer CLEAR this up? Quote
