message: Word pad can display tables if they are present in the rtf file, it simply has no means of editing them.

message: I have added an entry called 'Future versions' where I mention the redesign of WordPad shown in Windows 7 M3. I also added an image already uploaded to Wikipedia from the Windows 7 wiki. Dom (talk) 10:54, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  WordPad prior to Windows 7 could open Word .doc files, but the newer version can only open .docx and NOT .doc. MS is admitting the complexity in their .doc format! Family Guy Guy (talk) 15:59, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

message: Is it encyclopedic to have pro's and con's, even at the discussion page? Note that's not even a discussion, it just sits there almighty-ly. We are not PCMag, or some software review webpage. A section like that could be included, if we get the proper sources to back it up. And still, we would need to use "some people, including XXXXX and YYYY", etc... 190.53.202.228 (talk) 05:16, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

message: It's executable is write.exe, so perhaps it is the newer version of Write.exe, but with a newer name and icon. The source code is available in the Windows 1.0 leaked source as well as the Windows 2000 and NT leaked source, as proof.   Duplicate discussion is here on the Write article:   Family Guy Guy (talk) 15:57, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

message: Unicode support for WordPad was available since Windows 2000 (which actually implemented it in almost all of its applications), not XP as stated in the article (however, it is widely known that XP was built on top of 2000). Its succeeding Windows Millennium indeed didn`t have Unicode support in WordPad since it was based on the legacy Windows architecture instead of NT. --Sds34343 (talk) 12:07, 28 July 2023 (UTC)

message: Proposed addition of recent information about Microsoft's announcement on WordPad's deprecation in Windows, supported by a relevant external source (https://geeksramp.com/microsoft-is-removing-wordpad-from-windows/), to be included in the History section instead in the beginning of the WordPad Wikipedia article "On 1 September 2023, Microsoft announced that WordPad is now deprecated and will be removed in a future Windows update." 103.217.133.79 (talk) 12:21, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
